GF Brownies

November 25, 2019 by towers

Dense but not too sweet, these brownies will please most chocolate lovers.  They do contain sugar–but a reduced amount–so best to make them for special occasions.  The monk fruit powder is a good sweetener when you want to reduce the sugar in a recipe.  Be careful when you buy it though because many monk fruit products also contain erythritol.   I try to avoid the sugar alcohols as they can cause digestive disturbances.  If you don’t have palm oil, you could use coconut oil instead though I prefer the taste of the palm oil.

1/4  cup ghee

1/4 cup red palm oil

1/3 cup organic cacao powder

Organic baking chocolate (a piece about 1/2 inch wide by 4 inches long), Dakoba is a good brand

3 eggs, room temperature

1/2 cup organic coconut sugar or cane sugar

1/2 tsp. monkfruit powder, more to taste to increase sweetness

1/2 tsp. sea salt

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/3 cup coconut flour

1/3 cup tapioca flour

1/3 cup coconut milk

3/4 cups chopped walnuts

In a double boiler, melt oils and baking chocolate.  Remove from heat and add  cacao powder.  Set aside.

In a bowl, mix all dry ingredients and add beaten eggs and coconut milk.  Mix well.  Add cacao mixture and beat with an electric beater until smooth.  Fold in chopped nuts.

Spoon into a baking pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.  Insert clean knife in center and bake until knife comes out clean.  Let cool.  If desired, frost with a mixture of  4 Tbsp cacao powder, 2 Tbsp. honey, and 1-2 Tbsp. coconut milk (enough to form the desired consistency) with a dash of vanilla extract.  Serve warm or cold.
