1 cup coconut sugar

1/4 tsp sea salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp baking powder

1 flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp warm water)

1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together flaxseed meal and warm water. Set aside to let it thicken for 5 minutes to make flax eggs.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt coconut oil over low heat. Remove from heat and add almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, sea salt, vanilla extract, baking powder, and flax egg. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

Step 4

Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and smooth the surface. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 6

Let the brownies cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
