FOR THE BROWNIES
240g pumpkin, banana, sweet potato or apple puree
120g smooth roasted sunflower seed butter, or almond, peanut, cashew...
60g raw cacao powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 - 4 tbsp maple syrup (optional)
3 tbsp water or non dairy milk of choice
FOR THE ICING
60g smooth roasted sunflower seed butter, or almond, peanut, cashew...
30g raw cacao powder
1- 2 tbsp maple syrup (optional)
1 tbsp (14g) melted coconut oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 180C (350F).
- Line a 9 inch loaf tin with baking paper and lightly grease with spray oil.
- Blend together all the brownie ingredients in a Nutribullet, food processor or blender.
- Add mixture to the tin, spread evenly with the back of a spoon and bake for 15 - 20 minutes; test with a toothpick, I prefer them slightly under done and set in the fridge!
- Allow to cool fully before icing.
- Whisk together icing ingredients in a jug, spread over brownies and allow to set in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight. Slice into 8 brownies.
- Store in the fridge for up to one week in a sealed tight container or freeze for up to one month. These get even better after a day in the fridge!
