Once I hit my goal, I’d like to stay there and not re-gain everything I’ve worked so hard to lose. In order to do that, I’m trying to find better dessert options which is where this Easy Paleo Brownie Recipe comes in!

I have to say, when I attempted this recipe the first time, I didn’t think I’d call it ‘easy’ but once I figured out the trick, it was super simple.

Paleo Brownie Recipe –

Ingredients:

• 4 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate
• 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
• 1 cup coconut sugar
• 1/2 cup tapioca flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (vanilla extract will work if you don’t have vanilla bean paste)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

Directions: 

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time.
3. Whip the eggs and sugar in bowl and mix until silky. (The trick: whisk the eggs & sugar until fluffy. If you don’t, the brownies will be a crumbly disintegrating mess.)
4. Mix the vanilla bean paste into your sugar/egg mixture.
5. Combine the melted chocolate/butter mixture into the sugar/egg mixture and stir until incorporated.
6. Add the flour and mix well.
7. Pour the batter in an 8×8 baking pan.
8. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
9. Serve and enjoy!

These brownies are super-dooper rich. So much so that I couldn’t eat all of one small square but they definitely satisfied my sweet tooth!
