Mom's Texas Brownies, grain free
"A big, cakey, brownie with chocolate frosting that is paleo and grain free with a low carb version...."
INGREDIENTS
•
Brownies:
•
1/2 cup coconut flour, sifted, where to buy coconut flour
•
3/4 cup sweetener of choice: coconut sugar for paleo, or erythritol for low carb option.
•
1/2 cup butter, ghee, or organic red palm oil (this brand is grown in Ecuador on small organic family farms and partner with Natural Habitats to promote sustainable agriculture, and where no rainforest or orangutan habitats are harmed).
•
1/2 cup brewed organic coffee or decaf coffee, or can use 1/2 cup water in place of this (if you can’t have coffee)
•
2 tbsp cocoa powder or cacao powder (unsweetened)
•
3 eggs
•
6 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk or almond milk + 1 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar, mixed together in a separate bowl (this makes dairy free buttermilk and it will look curdled).
•
1 tsp organic GF vanilla extract.
•
1 tsp baking soda
•
FROSTING:
•
1/4 cup ghee or butter or coconut oil
•
1 tbsp cocoa powder or cacao powder
•
1/2 cup powdered sweetener of choice: coconut sugar for paleo (make this by pulsing coconut sugar in blender or processor until powdered), or for Low Carb use 1/2 cup powdered erythritol (pulse in blender or processor until powdered), I used Swerve.
•
1 1/2 tbsp coconut milk or almond milk (unsweetened)
•
1/2 tsp organic GF vanilla
