YUMMY & HEALTHY brownies. A perfect alternative for those who love carob or can’t have chocolate.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup spelt flour or similar (e.g. gluten free flour, buckwheat flour)
6 Tbs carob powder
1/4 tsp salt (I used pink rock salt)
1 cup coconut sugar or similar
1/2 cup or 115g butter (I used organic)
2 organic free-range eggs
1/2 cup chopped nuts (i used cashews and blitzed them for a second in the Nutribullet) Can be made without nuts.
Method:
Preheat oven to 170C
Grease a cake tin.
Whisk dry ingredients (except sugar) in a bowl.
In a larger bowl, cream butter and sugar (if you don’t have a stick blender use a fork – it takes longer but still works)
Add eggs to the wet mix and beat until combined.
Add dry ingredients and mix to combine.
Scrape mixture into cake tin in a thin layer.
Bake for 25-35 mins (check at 25 minutes with a skewer).
