Healthy Recipe: Dessert

Healthy Option Brownies
Okay! So, last Saturday I was in the mood for a treat and I decided to make Paleo Brownies. If you eat chocolate all the time, these aren't very exciting because you would be more used to sweet desserts but for those of you who are on a diet at the moment and would like a healthy alternative, give this recipe a go!

Almond Butter Spread
Ingredients-


  • 1 c almond butter
  • 1/2 c canned coconut milk
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 t vanilla extract
  • 1/4 t salt
  • 1/3 c cocoa powder
  • 1/4 c honey
  • 1 banana
  • 1/3 c Cocoa based chocolate (70%) optional
  • 1/3 c chopped nuts
Methods-


Preheat the oven to 180°. Put baking paper in an 8 x 8 baking dish. 
In a bowl whisk together the almond butter, coconut milk, eggs, vanilla extract and salt. Then add the cocoa powder, honey,  and cocoa.
Pour into the prepared baking dish and top with chopped nuts.
Bake for approx. 18 minutes.
Take tray out and let brownies set for 10 minutes. Then cut into desired sizes. 
Add coconut sprinkles if desired.

Update: Hide from boyfriend or any boys in the house...
