Ingredients

For the no bake brownies

• 1 cup coconut flour, sifted
• 1 cup cocoa powder
• 2 scoops chocolate protein powder Optional
• 1 cup almond butter can use any nut or seed butter
• 1 1/2 cups sticky sweetener of choice I used monk fruit sweetened maple syrup
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce

For the frosting

• 1 serving Frosting of choice Optional

 

Instructions

1. Line an 8 x 8 inch or 10 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside. For thicker brownies, opt for the smaller pan. Alternatively, you can use any loaf pan. 
2. In a large mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients and mix well. In a microwave-safe bowl or stovetop, combine your almond butter with sticky sweetener of choice. Heat until melted.
3. Pour over the dry mixture and mix until a crumbly texture remains. Add your unsweetened applesauce and mix until a thick batter is formed. If too crumbly, add some milk or liquid to achieve desired texture. Transfer to lined pan and press firmly in place. Refrigerate. 
4. While no bake brownies are firming up, prepare your frosting of choice (protein frosting, coconut ganache or melting your favorite chocolate bar). Pour frosting over the raw brownies and refrigerate until firm. Once firm, cut into bars. 

 

Recipe Notes

Protein powder is optional- If you do use it, you may need an extra tablespoon or two of applesauce and/or milk of choice.
No Bake Applesauce Brownies should be kept refrigerated but can be frozen. For fudgier, gooey brownies, enjoy at room temperature.

Ingredients

• 2 cups sweet potatoes, pureed *
• 1 cup smooth almond butter can substitute for any nut or seed butter of choice
• 1/4 cup sugar free maple syrup can sub for pure maple syrup
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional
• 1 serving healthy frosting of choice **

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven the 350 degrees fahrenheit and lightly grease a small loaf pan (thicker brownies) or 8 x 8 inch pan (perfect for thicker frosting) and set aside. 
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all your ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Pour into the greased pan and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a skewer just comes out clean.
3. Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan completely. 
4. While brownies are cooling, prep your frosting of choice- See above the recipe card for the options (protein packed, coconut cream ganache, a chocolate bar of choice or homemade Nutella). Once brownies are cooled, frost and cut into pieces. 

Recipe Notes

* Ensure sweet potatoes are completely pureed, otherwise your brownies will have clumps.
** See notes above for the 4 options- For easiest option, simply melt your favorite chocolate bar over it. Alternatively, you can omit completely.
Because these brownies contain no eggs, you can remove them from the oven earlier than before they are done- They will be ultra fudgy this way.
Brownies need to be kept refrigerated and are freezer friendly.
