Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure that it reaches the perfect temperature for baking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup, non-dairy milk, melted coconut oil or butter, eggs or flax eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth.
  3. Add the cocoa powder, blanched almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.
  4. Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and spread it evenly.
  5. Bake for 22-28 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing into squares.
