Ingredients
Browkie Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup gluten-free flour blend
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix the Brownie Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt. Mix until smooth.
Add Chocolate Chips
Fold in the chocolate chips into the brownie batter until evenly distributed.
Prepare the Cookie Dough
In another bowl, mix the gluten-free flour blend and baking powder. Then add in your favorite cookie ingredients if desired.
Layer the Batter
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Then add dollops of the cookie dough on top, swirling it gently to combine.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool and Serve
Let the Browkies cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
For best flavor, allow Browkies to sit for a few hours before serving.
Tips for Perfect Browkies
To achieve the perfect Browkies, ensure that your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This allows for better emulsification, which leads to a smoother batter. Additionally, don’t overmix your brownie batter; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Overmixing can lead to tougher Browkies instead of the desired fudgy texture.
Another helpful tip is to let your Browkies cool completely before slicing into them as this will make the cutting process much easier. If you’re in a hurry, a quick chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes can help set the layers and make slicing more precise.
Storage and Freezing
Browkies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, consider freezing them. Cut them into squares and layer them between parchment paper in an airtight container before freezing. They can last up to three months in the freezer, providing the perfect grab-and-go dessert whenever you need a sweet fix.
To enjoy frozen Browkies, simply thaw them at room temperature for about 30 minutes or pop them in the microwave for a few seconds. This will help regain their soft, fudgy texture and make them feel freshly baked!
Customization Ideas
One of the fun aspects of the Browkie recipe is its versatility. Feel free to customize the recipe according to your taste preferences! You can experiment by adding different types of chocolate chips, such as dark or white chocolate, or introducing nuts for an added crunch. Swirling in your favorite nut butter can also elevate the flavor profile.
If you're looking for a unique twist, consider adding a layer of caramel or butterscotch between the brownie and cookie layers. This creates a delightful surprise in each bite, making your Browkies even more irresistible. The customization possibilities are endless, ensuring that you can make these treats your own!
