- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed + 4 Tbsp water
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree or applesauce
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
- scant 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp oat flour
- 1/3 cup non-dairy chocolate chips
Cookie Layer
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar (pure cane or brown sugar works too)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper.
- Make the brownie batter first. In a medium bowl, make the flax egg by combining the ground flaxseed and water. Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken. Then add the pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, coconut oil, cacao powder, salt, baking soda, and apple cider vinegar. Mix with a spatula until smooth and well combined. Add the oat flour in. Stir until just combined, careful not to over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips. Pour batter into the pan.
- Next make the cookie dough batter. In a medium bowl, combine oat flour, almond flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix until well combined. Add the coconut sugar, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and almond milk. Mix with a spatula until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips. Spread batter carefully over the brownie layer.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the top is set, slightly golden, and a toothpick comes out clean. Mine took about 37 minutes. Let it cool in the pan for 20 minutes. Then carefully lift it out using the parchment paper and place on a cooling rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
