Gluten-free AND yummy! Makes an 8 x 8 inch pan of brownies. I’ll leave it up to you to decide how many servings that is.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz bitter (unsweetened) chocolate
  • 4 T butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 t vanilla
  • 1 C sugar
  • ¼ C white rice flour
  • ¼ C almond flour
  • ¼ C tapioca flour
  • ½ t xanthan gum
  • Optional: ½ to ¾ C chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Melt chocolate and butter on stove top or in microwave.

Mix eggs and vanilla.  Add 1 C sugar and beat on medium speed for one minute.  Avoid overbeating which will result in dry brownies.

Stir in melted chocolate and butter.  

Mix flours and xanthan gum in a separate bowl. Add all at once to egg, sugar, and chocolate mixture along with nuts if desired.  Mix with a fork until just combined.

Pour into a greased 8” square baking pan and bake for 25 min or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Allow to cool before cutting and serving. If you’re impatient and don’t let them cool, they’ll be a little crumbly but still pretty excellent.

Enjoy!
