FUDGY AVOCADO BROWNIES

Avocado Brownies are moist, decadent, and ultra delicious. They're easy to make and are the perfect guilt-free dessert the whole entire crowd is going to love.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes
Servings 16 Brownies

Ingredients

  • 1 large Ripe Avocado
  • 1 cup Granulated Sweetener of Choice (I used coconut sugar)
  • ½ cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cup Milk of Choice (I used almond milk)
  • ⅓ cup Chocolate Chips dark, semi-sweet, milk - whatever you prefer
  • ¼ cup Nut Butter of your Choice (I used peanut butter)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8x12 or 9x13 rectangular pan with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray. I used a brownie pan which evenly makes about 18 small brownies but you could use a normal baking dish* (see notes)
  • Add all of the ingredients except for the chocolate chips and almond milk in a food processor.

  • Blend until smooth. Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides as needed ensuring you're not left with any chunks. Alternatively, you could use an electric mixer or a spoon.

  • Slowly pour the almond milk down the feeding tube while the food processor is still on to thin out the batter a bit.

Notes

For thicker brownies, use an 8-inch square baking dish.
Baking these brownies in a glass or dark coloured dish may affect the baking time and texture of the brownies. If using one of those, keep a close eye on them after 35 minutes of baking and every 5 minutes after that, until they're done.
Brownies are done when a toothpick is inserted into the center and comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Cool completely before eating - this means waiting at least 2 hours (sorry!!) as the avocado unpleasantly shines through when warm!
