Calories 135kcal
Ingredients
- 5 Tablespoons light buckwheat flour (see Recipe Notes above)
- 4 Tablespoons cocoa powder
- ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
- 1/16 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 6 Tablespoons applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 Tablespoons melted coconut oil (grapeseed oil also works well)
- 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 3-4 Tablespoons warm milk of your choice as needed
- chocolate chips or chunks for topping
- stevia as desired for extra sweetness
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Start with room temperature ingredients.
- Mix the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, salt). Sift the ingredients if they need it to prevent clumps.
- Mix in the wet ingredients (applesauce, vanilla, oil, sweetener, milk).
- Stir until well combined. Add a little stevia if you desire extra sweetness; I use about 10-12 drops.
- Pour the batter into a well-oiled 7 x 5-inch glass Pyrex dish.
- Top with chocolate, as desired.
- Bake 10-15 minutes, just until the top is set. Remember, it is better to UNDER bake brownies than over bake them.
- Cool completely, cut, and enjoy!
