Date Brownies
These Date Brownies are so simple to make and deliciously naturally sweetened!
Servings: 9 brownies
Ingredients
- ¾ cup packed Natural Delights Medjool Dates pitted ~10 medium Medjool Dates
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup almond butter I’ve also tried these with PB and they turned out great!
- 1 ½ tablespoons flaxseed meal
- ⅓ cup cacao powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
- ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Optional: ½ cup of dark chocolate chips + more for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- In a food processor, blend together the dates, almond butter and water until the dates are almost fully broken down and a paste forms. You may need to stop and scrap the sides of the food processor a few times. This will take about a minute of blending.
- Add in the remaining ingredients (minus the chocolate chips) and blend until fully combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter (it'll be pretty thick) into the prepared pan and use a spatula to spread it out evenly into the pan. Top with additional chocolate chips as desired.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve and ENJOY!
