Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup Paleo-approved protein powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (Paleo-friendly)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with coconut oil.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, protein powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Mix well to ensure no clumps remain.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined.
Step 5
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean and the edges start to pull away from the pan.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once cooled, cut into 16 squares. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
