Another happy accident. Too much milk for a two egg omelet accidentally poured into the bowl by sleepy eyes. The leftover orange ginger jam from the Thanksgiving cheese platter begging for a purpose. An unopened bag of almond flour because it was in front of the pantry and on top. Thank goodness I had baking powder. The last orange. A jar of pecans. Half a bar of dark chocolate. A bag of dried cherries. Imagination.

I had to eat a couple before letting them cool completely. Yum!

How To Make orange ginger pecan cherry choc chip brownies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 F

Step 2

Line a brownie pan with parchment.
Step 3

Blend together the dry stuff: almond flour, salt, baking powder, sugar, and wheat gluten.
Step 4

Whip eggs and milk until frothy.
Step 5

Gently blend honey citron ginger tea and softened butter into whipped eggs and milk with a whisk. You'll see little chunks of butter - that's ok.
Step 6

Roughly chop pecans, chocolate, and cherries.
Step 7

Zest a whole orange with a fine zester.
Step 8

Fold the batter and chunky stuff together to get a thick chunky batter.
Step 9

Pour into the parchment lined brownie pan, making it as flat as possible. Don't rap the pan to even it out or the solids will fall to the bottom.
Step 10

Bake at 325 F for about 35 minutes or until lightly browned on top and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Step 11

Let cool before cutting.
