They’re naturally sweetened with panela, supporting blood sugar balance, and can be made gluten-free and vegan to suit all dietary needs.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Social Alchemy Chocolate Mix (with cacao, panela, maca, ginger, carob, lucuma, reishi & chaga mushrooms, ashwagandha, cinnamon, and Peruvian mountain salt)
• 1/2 cup almond flour (or gluten-free flour of choice)
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder (for an extra chocolate kick)
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
• 3/4 cup maple syrup or honey (for natural sweetness)
• 2 large eggs (or 2 flax eggs for a vegan option: 2 tbsp ground flaxseed + 5 tbsp water)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks (optional but highly recommended)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with coconut oil.
2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Social Alchemy Chocolate Mix, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly blended.
3. Prepare the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup (or honey), eggs (or flax eggs), and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
4. Combine wet and dry: Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring until no dry spots remain. If you like, fold in some dark chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking for a fudgy texture).
6. Cool & Slice: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing them into squares.
