Chocolate Chip Brownies

Chocolate Chip Brownies

I have been playing around with this Chocolate Chip Brownies recipe for a while, tweaking and fiddling until I got a texture I liked. It’s moist, fudgy and quite delicious (if I do say so myself). 😉

I hadn’t used choc chips in cooking for ages. Everytime I checked the ingredients of ones at the supermarket, I bought them back on the shelf in a hurry. I boycott Nestle products and avoid anything I know has palm oil, soy, hydrogenated oils and artificial additives.

Thankfully, I found some awesome organic dark chocolate buttons at Nutra Organics. Their Wholefood Pantry Range chocolate buttons are dairy free and have no artificial weird stuff.

 

Chocolate Chip Brownies

Vital Stats: Gluten free, Dairy free, Grain free, Nut free

This is what you need:

1/2 cup organic coconut flour

1/2 cup organic cacao powder

1/2 cup organic virgin coconut oil

3/4 cup honey or maple syrup 

1/2 cup Wholefood Pantry chocolate buttons or chopped dark chocolate

6 organic, free range eggs

1 teaspoon bicarb soda

1 teaspoon vanilla or scraped vanilla pod

 

This is how you do it:

Pre-heat the oven to 180° celsius. Whack some non-toxic baking paper into a slice tin (mine was 28cm x 19cm).

Put all the dry ingredients in the thermomix and mix speed 5 for 10 seconds.

Add wet ingredients (and choc chips) and mix, reverse, speed 5 for 10 seconds or until well combined.

If you don’t have a thermomix, simply mix dry ingredients in a bowl and then add wet ingredients and mix lightly with a spoon until well combined.

Scrape out the mix into the slice tin, smooth it down.

Bung in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until cooked.

Cool on wire rack.  Eat and enjoy!

    Delicious Sonia! They’ve passed the test with Mr 7 who has sensory issues with food and hasn’t coped with coconut flour before. Woohoo! I’ll send you a pic later… 😀

      They are pretty good – get two packets of those choc chips. They are also handy to melt and make some choc coated sultanas for a late night snack 😉

    I made these for my hubby and toddler yesterday in my brand-spankin’-new Thermie Lol and they loved them. I however am currently only “permitted” xylitol as my sweetener for a little while. .. Do you think xylitol would work in this this recipe? And if so, how much I should use? TIA… Love your work 😀

      HI Shannon… give it a go! I am not completely sure as it’s not a liquid. I would probably try 1/2 cup and then test batter for sweetness. 🙂

    Could coconut flour be substituted 1:1 with plain or whole meal flour?

      No sorry Brooke, it doesn’t translate – you would need more plain flour and less liquid 🙂
