Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until smooth. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use room-temperature eggs to prevent the coconut oil from hardening.
- Don’t overbake — the center should still look slightly soft.
- Add extra chocolate chips on top before baking for a gooey finish.
