Ingredients

Dry

Wet

  • 1 cup unsalted all-natural peanut butter drippy
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup plain unsweetened almond milk*
  • ½ cup chocolate chips melted
  • 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a light-colored 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  • Add all of the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix to combine. Set aside.

  • Add the eggs and almond milk and stir to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until well combined. Add the coconut oil and stir again.
  • Fold the melted chocolate into the batter. Do not over-mix the melted chocolate in so it is combined with the batter, fold it in so there are fudgy pockets throughout the batter.
  • Transfer the batter into the line-caked pan. Option to top the batter with more chocolate chips.

  • Bake the brownies for 35-40 minutes or until the center of the brownies is almost baked. You want there to be a little bit on the toothpick when you check the middle of the brownie as the brownie will continue to cook when it is removed from the oven.
  • Allow the brownies to cool for 3-5 minutes before gently loosening the sides of the brownie with a knife and then lifting the parchment paper. Transfer the brownies to a cooling rack.

Tips & Notes

  • The bake time may vary depending on the oven, what pan is used, and whether or not you are baking at altitude.
  • If you know one side of your oven bakes hotter than the other, turn the baking pan in the oven halfway through the baking time.
  • Feel free to add other delicious brownie mix-ins.
