Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Pitted Medjool Dates
• 0.5 cup Water
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 0.25 cup Coconut Oil, melted
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cup Almond Flour
• 0.5 cup Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Dark Chocolate Chips (soy-free)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, combine the pitted Medjool dates and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the dates are soft and have absorbed most of the water.

Step 3

Transfer the date mixture to a food processor and blend until smooth. Add the applesauce, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the dates and pulse until well combined.

Step 4

Crack the eggs into the food processor and blend until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 6

Add the wet mixture from the food processor to the dry ingredients. Mix well until you have a thick, smooth batter.

Step 7

Fold in the dark chocolate chips.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the brownies are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 10

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting out and cutting into squares.

Step 11

Serve the brownies plain or top with a scoop of your favorite dairy-free ice cream or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
