Raw vegan brownies recipe

Today I made those incredibly fantastic yummy healthy brownies:


Ingredients:
  • 2 cups pecans OR walnuts
  • ¾ cup cacao powder
  • pinch sea salt
  • 2 cups medjool dates
  • ¼ cacao nibs (optional)
Method:
  1. In the food processor, process the pecans until they are a roughly ground flour texture.
  2. Add cacao powder and salt and process again to combine (make sure the lid is on properly so you don’t breathe in the cacao powder cloud).
  3. Add medjool dates and combine until a ball forms.
  4. If you want a more fluffy, airy brownie rather than a dense one, process the pecans less and medjool dates left, stopping before a ball forms.
  5. In a small pan or container, press the brownie mixture down. Sprinkle cacao nibs on top.
  6. Freeze for a few hours to harden and set.
  7. Store in the fridge or freezer (I like the freezer better).
Notes:
For a fudgier brownie, try adding 1-2 Tbsp of liquid sweeter such as maple syrup, agave syrup or coconut nectar.

I didn't process the nuts enough, that's why they're so "chunky" hehe. But they are yummy as well :-D
