What ingredients do I need to make these double chocolate brownies?

If you want to make these brownies, here’s what you’ll need!

  • oat flour
  • cocoa powder
  • salt
  • baking powder
  • water or dairy free milk
  • pure vanilla extract
  • coconut oil (or olive oil)

What if I have a nut or coconut allergy?

If you have a nut allergy you can substitute the nut butter with a seed butter (like sunflower seed butter or sesame seed butter). If you’re allergic to coconut, you can substitute the coconut oil with olive oil or vegan butter.

What if I don’t have almond butter?

If you don’t have almond butter or you don’t prefer to use it, you can use another nut butter of choice like peanut or cashew butter (I recommend Vör cashew butter).
