I have to admit I love a good brownie. My mother never met a convienience food she didn’t like, so brownies at our house were always from a mix. But my mother still took the time to make them. It wasn’t until I was out on my own that I discovered the joys of baking.
This is my recipe. I bake them in a mini muffin pan so they are brownie bites. The secret to a nice fudgy brownie is to not overbake them.
Genie’s Brownie Bites
1 cup brown rice flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder (I prefer dark)
1 t. baking powder
1/2 cup agave nectar or 1 cup sugar
1 egg or equivilent substitute
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/3 cup water (I like to use raspberry or peppermint herbal tea instead)
1/4 cup walnuts if desied
1 cup chocolate chips (regular or minis will work)
Directions:
1, Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Combine flour, cocoa and baking powder in a large bowl.
3. Add applesacue, agave, egg substitute and water, stirring to combine.
4. Mix in walnts, chocolate chips and almond extract.
Bake in a mini muffin pan for 15 minutes or until brownies are done. Watch them carefully. If your want fudgy brownies don’t overbake.
Makes 24 brownie bites.`
