Steps:
- For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch glass baking pan with coconut oil and set aside.
- Combine the brownie mix with the eggs, oil and 1/4 cup water in a large bowl. Stir together using a rubber spatula until fully incorporated. Spread in the prepared pan.
- For the topping: Combine the almond butter, powdered sugar and coconut oil in a separate bowl. Spoon dollops of this mixture over the top of the brownie batter. Using a toothpick, swirl the two together. Bake until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted an inch from the edge of the pan comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with the flaky salt. Cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
ALMOND BUTTER BROWNIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease an 8-by-8-inch pan with butter. Cut a piece of parchment to hang over 2 sides of the pan.
- Mix together the butter and almond butter by hand in a large mixing bowl. Beat the eggs in a small bowl, then add them to the butter mixture. Mix in the sugar, prune puree and vanilla.
- Whisk together the cocoa powder, flour and salt in a separate bowl. Gently stir the flour mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix by hand just until combined; do not over-mix. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the flaky sea salt.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the brownies comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool, and then cut into squares.
Tips:
- Use high-quality almond butter: The almond butter is the main ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a brand that is made with 100% almonds and doesn't contain any added sugar or salt.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the brownies tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Bake the brownies until they are set: The brownies are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help them to hold their shape.
Conclusion:
These almond butter brownies are a delicious and healthy treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are made with wholesome ingredients and are naturally gluten-free.
