Flourless Fudge Nut Brownies
These flourless fudge nut brownies are the ultimate fudge brownie you crave but completely guilt free!
Equipment
- 9x13 baking dish
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened natural peanut butter just peanuts + salt
- 1 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips Dairy free (like Enjoy Life brand)
- 3/4 cup walnuts optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- If you are using walnuts, add them to a dry sheet pan and toast at 350 for about 6 minutes. The nuts will smell fragrant once toasted. Let the walnuts cool, give them a rough chop and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the maple syrup and peanut butter with a hand mixer until the mixture is smooth and glossy; 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs and vanilla to the bowl and mix again.
- Once the wet ingredients are combined, add in the cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt and mix again until no powder is showing.
- Fold in the chopped toasted walnuts and 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips.
- Bake the brownies at 350 for 25-30 minutes until the edges are set. You want the center of the brownies to still be a bit gooey.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting.
