Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond butter, roasted almonds preferred. Mine had no added oil or sugar!
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Chocolate Topping

  • 1/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • Sea salt to top, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the egg, almond butter, maple syrup and coconut sugar. *If your almond butter is nearing the end of the jar and isn't smooth, I recommend using a blender for this step so everything gets fully incorporated.
  2. Add in the cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and mix until well combined.
  3. Pour into a parchment lined 8 x 8 baking dish and flatten with a spatula. The mixture should be sticky, so wet your spatula to help smoothen it into the pan.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  5. Melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 30 second increments in the microwave for 1- 1 1/2 minutes total. Pour over the brownies and slice into 16 squares. Top with sea salt if desired.
  6. Store in a cool place in an air tight container for up to 1 week.
