Keto Avocado Brownies

This self isolation and hibernating home has got me CRAVING chocolate! Here's a Keto/Paleo friendly brownie that fills you up with healthy fats without spiking your blood sugar like a traditional brownie. And most importantly - it satisfies that chocolate craving!

INGREDIENTS

• 4 large eggs

• 2 ripe avocados

• 1/2 c. coconut butter (or you can use melted butter or ghee)

• 6 tbsp. unsweetened peanut butter or almond butter

• 2/3 c. keto-friendly sugar of your choice (I used Swerve) - if you aren’t doing a keto version you can use your sweetener of choice such as maple syrup, honey, coconut sugar etc.

• 2/3 c. unsweetened cocoa powder

• 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp. sea salt

• 2 tsp. baking soda

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth.

• Transfer batter to baking pan and smooth top with a spatula. You can use 8”-x-8” square pan with parchment paper or coat with an oil (I used coconut oil)

• Bake at 350° until brownies are soft but not at all wet to the touch, 20 to 25 minutes 

• Let cool for 15-20 minutes before serving
