Almond Butter Chocolate Brownies

Sharing is caring!

Almond butter makes a great flourless brownie and gives it a fudgy texture that is delightfully rich.

This is one of my very first attempts at gluten free baking so I thought that it would be time to revisit it.   Many years ago I used honey which made the brownie very moist but now I turned to xylitol for the sweetener.  The brownie is still fudge like, especially the next day.

I make my own almond butter as it’s easy and cheaper.  You could make this brownie recipe with another nut butter as well.   I sometimes use a mix of almond and cashew nut butter.  Both butters are easy to make if you have a food processor and a lot cheaper than buying it in a jar from your health store.

I had a play around with these using salted almonds to make the almond butter and used a dash of coffee in the mixture.  They made a nice slightly salty and coffee brownie treat.  Feel free to play around with the flavours of the brownies too!
