Happy Hormones Brownies with baked plum & rose petal jam
My favorite brownie of all time. Perfectly sweet, incredibly rich and moist. A recipe full of nutritious fats and fiber, magnesium, copper, potassium and iron. Low in sugar and blood sugar friendly (for a brownie). This is what I make the week before my moon time..
Ingredients:
2 cups dates, soaked for 15 minutes in hot water
2 cups almond flour
1 tbsp ground flax seeds
2/3 cup cacao powder
2 tbsp coconut sugar (optional) (a pinch of stevia works well too)
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp bicarbonate
1 tsp Sun Potion Reishi
1 tbsp Sun Potion Tocos
1/2 - 2/3 cup water
1/2 cup almond or coconut milk
1 egg
1 tbsp coconut oil or ghee, melted
2 tbsp melted cacao paste or 80% dark chocolate (for an extra rich brownie- can be left out)
DIRECTIONS
1. Add soaked dates and water to a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
2. Transfer the date paste to a large bowl. Add the remaining wet ingredients and stir well.
3. Mix in dry ingredients and combine very well. You want a thick batter, easy to spread with a spatula into your tin.
4.Spread the mixture out into a lined tin.
5.Bake in the oven at 220 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes.
5. Let the brownie cool for at least an hour before serving. It delicious served with a spoonful of coconut yoghurt and a drizzle of @sunpotion bio active honey.
Or, make a simple plum jam;
