What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Foodstuff Redefined: Coconut Flour Brownies! Every once in awhile I need a gluten-free recipe for sharing. The bonus is a healthy alternative to sugary sweets with high caloric count. Coconut flour is high in fiber and lower in carbs, yet free from wheat and grains. I like its hint of coconut with a mild, slightly toasty flavor. Don’t be discouraged by the cost. A little goes a long way.
COCONUT FLOUR BROWNIES
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, unsalted, melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
3 large eggs
1/2 cup natural honey
2 tablespoons agave nectar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup minus 1 tablespoon coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
1/3 cup toasted coconut
1/3 cup candied pecans, chopped
1 Toblerone chocolate bar, chopped
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 300°. Line an 10″ glass baking pan with parchment paper. Spray lightly with nonstick oil. In a large bowl, combine butter, vegetable oil, cocoa powder, and eggs. Mix well. Add honey, agave nectar, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined. Add baking soda, coconut flour, and kosher salt. Mix until batter is thoroughly combined. Fold in mini chocolate chips. Spread evenly into prepare baking pan. Top with toasted coconut, candied pecans, and chopped Toblerone pieces. Bake 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on wire rack. Once room temperature, remove from pan and cut into serving portions. Keep in airtight container.

This reminds me of an old Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup commercial.
But it’s two great tastes that DO taste great together.

So your saying these brownies are just like candy. That works for me. Often whenever people hear gluten-free they think, “dry as dust”. 🤔

I once had gluten free pizza. Well a slice. I asked for extra gluten on the next one, 😉

Crazy, huh? I bought some gluten-free English muffins. Once the house guests left, the rest of the package got freezer-burnt before I tossed them out for the birds. 😜

You can substitute 1/4 cup applesauce per egg. It acts as a binding agent.
