Gooey Brownie Skillet
The best and only Gooey Brownie Skillet recipe you’ll ever need. It’s made from pecans and is so delicious you’ll love me and hate me for this one 🙂

True story. After Caleb was born, Jaryd worked night shifts for a good month. During that month, I made microwaveable mug brownies every. damn. night. It wasn’t my best, most balanced month but it was what my postpartum, super hormonal self needed sooo #noregrets. Anyway, what I’m trying to say is…

I’ve become quite the connoisseur when it comes to brownies. Well technically I feel like my brownie knowldedge was something I’ve worked for and honed my entire life, but that postpartum brownie routine reeeally cemented my expertise in the area.

Anyway, in all of my brownie eating. I’m serious, you guys. In ALL my brownie eating (It’s a lot. I’ve eaten a lot of brownies). IN ALL MY BROWNIE EATING, THESE THESE THESE are the best. I don’t know what else to say besides… view this recipe with caution.

Gooey Brownie Skillet

This brownie skillet is way too easy to make. Way too amazing to eat. And, perfect in every single way. You probably have all of the ingredients in your pantry and fridge (a blessing and a curse) and they are ooey goey, chocolatey happiness. OK, that’s all folks, let’s make a gooey brownie skillet!!

Servings: 4 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pecans (or sub in 1/2 cup almond flour if you don’t have pecans)
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons butter (coconut oil or ghee works too)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Two scoops of ice cream (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Process the pecans in the food processor until mealy.
  3. Add the sea salt, baking powder, baking soda, coconut sugar, and cocoa powder.
  4. Process again until combined.
  5. Add the butter, egg, and vanilla.
  6. Process again until combined.
  7. Scrape down the sides of the food processor and process again until combined.
  8. Fold in the chocolate chips and transfer to your skillet (mine was 7″).
  9. Depending on the type of skillet, you may want to grease it with butter or ghee before transferring it.
  10. Bake in the oven for 8 – 10 minutes. I lean more toward 8 minutes because gooiness is my best friend.
  11. Top with a couple scoops of ice cream and dig in!!

    I love all your recipes and follow on Instagram! I bought coconut flour thinking it would be a good substitution for almond flour (coconut flour was cheaper) but then read it is very difficult to cook with. Do you have any specific recipes for coconut flour?

      Hi!! Aw I feel like a lot of people do that. In some recipes I use small amounts of coconut flour, like my vanilla cupcakes, but generally I avoid it. You’ll work your way through it eventually!

    So good. My husband and I just wolfed this down. Too good. It is not good that I now have the knowledge of how easy these are to make, with ingredients I always have in the house. Thanks for the amazing recipe!

      Hi Susan,

      Unfortunately I don’t have an easy way to update my recipe with the metrics. But, you can type in the amount into google and it will convert it for you. Let me know how it goes!

    Made these plenty of times and they’re delicious every time! I’m thinking of doubling this recipe for a bigger skillet. Do you know if that would work?
