Cacao brownies - vegan step by step

1. Preheat oven to 180C. Line a baking tin with baking paper..
2. Mix the almond flour, baking powder, salt and cacao together..
3. Melt the coconut oil in a pan on a gentle heat. If you’re using 85% chocolate, melt it along with the oil but use a bowl over a saucepan that has water simmering in it - like in the photo. No need to do this with cacao nibs because they don’t melt 😁.
4. Mix the oil + cacao nibs + the other wet ingredients..
5. Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. (Without the walnuts.).
6. Now it’s time for the walnuts 🎉Add half of the walnuts and gently fold them into the mixture..
7. Pour the mix into the tin and sprinkle the remaining walnuts on top. Bake for ~ 25 mins. You have to wait for them to cool before cutting or they fall apart 😕.
8. But once they’ve cooled down... enjoy! 😋 Best kept in the fridge..

Cacao brownies - vegan - In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Pour in water, vegetable oil and vanilla; mix until well blended. Stir ingredients together to form a thin sauce. You can make these vegan gluten free brownies with cocoa powder, either natural * or Dutch-processed *. I know some may argue that Dutch-processed is not exactly Paleo but I couldn't find any evidence-based arguments against it. You can use any type of chocolate chips you prefer, but I find it much harder to find good quality chocolate chips so if you prefer, you can chop up your favourite chocolate bar into small chunks and use them instead. Probably overkill, but I didn't want to risk the brownies sticking. Thank you and good luck
