Fudgey Brownies (made with coconut sugar)

Seriously, have you bought your Better Batter yet?  It is life changing.  If not, you can settle for a whole wheat and regular flour blend in this recipe.

Ingredients
1 Cup Better Batter Flour (or 1/2 cup whole wheat and 1/2 cup regular flour)
1/2 Cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 TBSP coconut oil
2 ounces of your favorite chocolate, chopped
3 TBSP unsweetened applesauce
1 Cup coconut sugar (you can use granulated OR use 3/4 cup of agave syrup for a lower sugar option)
1/4 cup almond milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 egg whites
1 egg

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray an 8 inch glass or metal pan with cooking spray, set aside
  2. Combine flour, cocoa and salt into your mixing bowl
  3. In a separate small bowl, add the chopped chocolate and coconut oil.  Heat in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds, stopping sporadically to mix them together. Set aside to cool a bit
  4. Add sugar, milk, vanilla, egg whites and egg to the flour mixture and mix on low for about a minute
  5. Add butter mixture and applesauce to the bowl and stir until the ingredients are mixed
  6. Pour the batter into the dish and bake for about 25-30 minutes.  Do a toothpick check sporadically to make sure they are baked to your liking (the pick with come out clean when they are fully cooked, but if you like a more doughy consistency, remove them from the oven when the pick comes out with just a trace amount of batter on it)
  7. Cut into 12 servings for 128 calorie bites (2 grams of fat/2 grams of protein) OR into 8 servings for 188 calories (3/3)
