The left over almond meal when I make almond milk presented me with a challenge as I did not want to throw it out. I will not speak of the crackers I tried for fear of the reoccurring nightmares. I did finally make a lovely version of falafel though and also a delicious, moist brownie. I am currently having a love affair with avocados and used them in this brownie recipe instead of butter. The result is a soft, moist brownie. You could use melted butter or coconut oil instead. A tasty and healthy way to use the almond meal.
INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup almond meal
2 tblspn cocoa powder
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup erthyritol (or sugar substitute of your choice)

25g dark chocolate
1/4 tspn salt
1/2 tspn baking powder
1 tblspn vanilla essence
