So if you're team pumpkin... ya know that person whose EVERY-thing pumpkin as soon as the month of September hits..
Then you're really going love these easy to make flourless pumpkin brownies.
Especially since healthy snacks involving chocolate are ALWAYS much better.
And by adding pumpkin to the mix you're getting an extra serving of fruit in this dark chocolate treat.
But I must admit these pumpkin muffins and bread are also some
of my favorites.
Plus pumpkin is low in calories and high in vitamins and minerals. And It's also a great source of beta carotene which may help boost the immune system.
So anytime you can sneak a little extra nutrition into your snacks then I'm ALL in.
HOW TO MAKE PUMPKIN BROWNIES
You want to start by preheating the oven and lining an 8 x 8 pan with parchment paper..
Trust me on this it's much easier to remove the brownies this way.
Then I like to gather and measure out all the ingredients needed for the brownies.
INGREDIENTS YOU'LL NEED FOR THESE BROWNIES
- Cocoa powder- unsweetened
- Eggs
- Maple syrup
- Dark chocolate chips
- Pumpkin puree- make sure you don't get the pumpkin pie filling
- Vanilla extract
- Almond butter
- Baking soda
Whisk together the eggs with the maple syrup, then add pumpkin, vanilla and almond butter and mix till combined.
Next add in cocoa powder and baking soda and whisk till no lumps. Stir in chocolate chips, pour in pan and bake.
PREFERRED METHOD FOR STORING THESE PUMPKIN BROWNIES
Store them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week for best results.
For longer storage you can also freeze them several months.
CAN I MAKE ANY SUBSTITUTIONS
You can use another nut butter such as cashew butter, sunflower butter, tahini or whatever your favorite.
Honey could be substituted for maple syrup or you could even adjust the amount of maple syrup if you want them sweeter.
