Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 oz dark chocolate (about 1 cup dark chocolate chips)

  • ¼ cup coconut oil, melted

  • ⅓ cup coconut sugar

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup tigernut flour (86g), sifted, spooned, and leveled

  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

Step 1 – Preheat the Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8″ x 8″ glass baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2 – Melt the Chocolate
Melt the dark chocolate over low heat in a small saucepan, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Once melted, set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3 – Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4 – Add the Eggs
Add the eggs to the mixture and whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5 – Incorporate the Dry Ingredients
Sift the tigernut flour and salt into the bowl. Gently whisk until just incorporated for a smooth batter.

Step 6 – Stir in the Melted Chocolate
Pour the melted chocolate into the batter and fold it in with a spatula until evenly combined.

Step 7 – Fill the Baking Pan
Transfer the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 8 – Bake the Brownies
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains soft for a fudgy texture.

 

Step 9 – Cool and Slice
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the baking dish at room temperature. Once cooled, slice into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Tigernut flour tends to clump. For best results, sift it and measure by weight.

  • For extra fudgy brownies, bake closer to 20 minutes.

 

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
