Ingredients
Brownie Mixture
- 2 ripe avocados, mashed
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper to ensure the brownies do not stick and come out easily.
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the mashed avocados, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and uniform, then fold in the dark chocolate chips.
- Spread Batter: Pour the smooth batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out to the edges to ensure even cooking.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no raw batter.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing. This helps them set for a fudgy texture and makes cutting easier.
Notes
- Add a teaspoon of espresso powder to the batter for a richer, deeper chocolate flavor.
- Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- Use ripe avocados for the best moisture and creaminess in the brownies.
