Fig and walnut oat brownies
Light, gooey, relatively guilt-free and loaded with awesome textures, these brownies are a breeze to make and guaranteed to be a family favourite! Adapted from a recipe linked below.
Ingredients
- 1 tin coconut milk
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 1/3 cup cashew butter (can also use peanut or any other nut butter)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups gluten free rolled oats
- 1/4 cup raw cacao powder
- 1 tbsp flax flour
- 1/2 tsp coarse salt
- 1/3 cup 70% dark chocolate chips, roughly chopped
- 2 handfuls walnuts, roughly chopped, divided
- 2 handfuls dried Turkish figs, cut into thin rounds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C. Prepare a brownie pan with baking paper and/or cooking spray. The ideal pan size is roughly 15 x 22cm.
- Add all the wet ingredients to a large bowl and mix well until all combined.
- Add all the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well until all combined.
- Add the chocolate chips and half of the walnuts and fold into the brownie mixture.
- Pour mixture into the brownie pan and arrange left over walnuts and dried figs on top.
- Bake for 40 - 50 minutes. Let cool in the pan completely and then on a wire rack (remove it with the baking paper) before cutting into squares and serving!
