This recipe is the bomb. You could also add chicken. I haven't tried it with other nut butters, but I think cashew butter would be good too. Link to download a PDF is below. Enjoy! ![]()

Sugar cravings are extremely common and can often be explained by relatively simple things, like the side effects from certain foods that have made their way into your diet or simply fact that reaching for that sugary snack has become a habit in its own right. But the truth is, refined sugar contains no fiber, no minerals, no protein, no healthy fats, no enzymes, only rapidly digested, and empty calories. It suppresses our immune system, triggers mood swings, and amplifies pain and inflammation. Sugar wreaks havoc on our bodies. Let me validate this for you: your initial instinct to read this article to learn healthy swaps to satisfy and reduce your sugar cravings to feel better, lighter, happier, and healthier is spot on. Here's a great recipe for avocado brownies that will satisfy your sweet tooth and get more healthy fat into your diet: Ingredients:
1 Avocado (medium, ripe) 2 Eggs 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract 1/2 cup Monkfruit sweetener (Note: I use Lakanto for 1:1 replacement to sugar. For other brands, check comparison to 1/2 cup sugar) 3 tbsps Ghee 1/2 cup Almond Flour 1/2 cup Cacao Powder (or cocoa powder) 1 tsp Baking Soda 1/2 tsp Sea Salt 1/3 cup Organic Dark Chocolate Chips Directions:
Avocado: One medium avocado is equal to approximately one cup of mashed avocado. No Ghee: Use coconut oil or coconut butter instead. Pan Size: For 12 servings, we used a 9 x 9-inch pan. |
