Brownie Ingredients:
- 1 cup dates (preferably medjool)
- 3/4 cup almond flour or gluten free flour
- 1/2 cup cacao powder
- 2-3 tbsp maple syrup (or any other liquid sweetener of choice)
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Method:
- Preheat oven to 180C
- Pour some hot water over the medjool dates, just enough to cover them, and soak for approx. 10 minutes
- Drain, then place in food processor and process until smooth consistency is formed
- Add the flour, cacao powder, maple syrup, vanilla essence and baking powder to the dates and process again until smooth.
- Line a 20x20 cm pan with baking paper and pour in, smoothing down the top
- Bake for 15-20 mins, then cut into squares once it has cooled (or just have one massive brownie CAKE...hehe)
Icing ingredients:
- 1 cup MEDJOOL dates (otherwise won't be smooth enough!)
- 1/4 cup cacao powder
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 3/4 cup water
Method:
- Put all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth (may take a while, just be patient!) Scrape down the sides when necessary
- Now spread it on to your cooled brownies and enjoy! Top with anything else you desire (I used BlendCo superfood blend and some fresh blueberries!)
