Healthy Fudgy Coconut Flour Brownies

Recipe From: Laura Watson
Healthy Brownies?  But what could they possibly taste like?    
These were actually really good for being healthy!   Since our family is gluten free, I get to come up with some creative meals and desserts.  So we do lots of experimenting with exotic ingredients, thats for sure.  Thank goodness for pinterest to help us out.   I made these for FHE and kids loved them!!   I used Cacao powder which you can get at Rosauers. (its more healthy for ya)  I also used Agave sweetener instead of the honey.   You could also sub . the butter for coconut oil for an even healthier brownie.  Eat your heart out!
Fudgy Coconut Flour Brownies
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup minus 1 Tbs. coconut flour (use the "dip and sweep method" to measure or use a kitchen scale and measure 50 grams of the flour) I use this coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder - substitute carob powder (this stuff) if there is a chocolate sensitivity
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbs. butter, melted
  • 3 eggs, at room temperature (egg substitutes will not work)
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbs. honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract, optional
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 300 and grease a glass baking dish (8x8 or 9x9).
  2. Mix together all ingredients. You can do this by hand or with an electric mixer or high-powered blender.
  3. Pour into the baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool for 30 minutes before cutting or removing from the pan.
  4. These store well at room temperature or in the fridge for a few days. Make sure you keep them in an airtight container.
