Ingredients

  • 1 ripe hass avocado pitted, peel removed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cup raw turbinado sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1 cup raw cacao powder or cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Add avocado and egg to a food processor. Blend until creamy and no lumps remain in avocado. Add remaining ingredients (except peanut butter) and blend well. Pour into greased 8x8 foil or parchment lined cake pan.
  3. Heat peanut butter just until creamy enough to pour. Drizzle over brownie batter and swirl around with a knife.
  4. Bake for 45-50 min or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle. Let sit for 20 min before cutting so the brownies set correctly.

  5. Enjoy with a cold glass of organic milk or your favorite dairy free variety :)

Recipe Notes

Best if eaten within a few days as avocado can change the consistency the longer it sits. Refrigerate to help keep longer.

Make sure to cook completely throughout. They will have less of a gooey and more of a cake like consistency when done, which is important so the avocado taste doesn't sneak back up on you!
