Gluten Free Almond Flour Brownies
These Fudgey Gluten Free Brownies are intensely gooey, chewy, and chocolatey! They are super simple, made with melted chocolate and almond flour!
Prep: 10 min + 15 min coolingCook: 17 - 20 minTotal: 30 min
Servings: 9 brownies 1x
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 4 tablespoons agave nectar (honey or maple syrup also works!)
- 2 eggs + 1 egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup blanched almond flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (Cacao v. Cocoa Powder: What’s the Difference?)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- flaked sea salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Melt the chocolate in a large microwave safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. I did this in the large mixing bowl I was planning on using for the brownies so I didn’t have to dirty a second bowl. (How to Melt Chocolate Chips in 5 Minutes)
- Whisk together the melted chocolate, coconut sugar, agave nectar, eggs, and vanilla in the large bowl.
- Whisk in the dry ingredients – blanched almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
- Line an 8×8 square pan with parchment paper and transfer the batter.
- Use a rubber spatula to smooth the batter into the edges and sides of the pan.
- Bake for 17 – 20 minutes until the edges are puffed a bit and the center is set with you wiggle the pan.
- Allow the brownies to cool for at least 15 minutes. The first time I made these, I was wayyy too excited to dive in. If you want brownies that hold together and are perfectly gooey without falling apart, wait for the brownies to set.
- Hot tip: use a plastic knife to cut the brownies to make smooth lines as you cut them.
- Sprinkle with flaked sea salt if you’re feeling fancy!
