Must Have Tools
For making the perfect jam tarts with shortcrust pastry, it’s essential to have these Amazon affiliate tools at your disposal.
Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use frozen blueberries without thawing them. Just fold them into the batter as you would with fresh blueberries.
What can I substitute for coconut sugar?
If you don’t have coconut sugar, you can substitute it with an equal amount of brown sugar, though this may slightly alter the flavor profile.
Expert Tips
- Measure your baking ingredients accurately: Check out my helpful guide on how to measure basic ingredients.
- Chocolate Selection: Use high-quality dark chocolate for rich flavor and smooth texture. Dark cooking chocolate works well, but you can also opt for any good-quality dark chocolate that you prefer.
- Cooling Melted Ingredients: After combining the chocolate and coconut oil, allow the mixture to cool to a lukewarm temperature before adding the eggs. This prevents the eggs from scrambling when added.
- Frozen Blueberries: If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them as they can bleed into the batter.
- Checking Doneness: The key to fudgy brownies is slightly underbaking them. The brownies are done when the edges look set and the center is just slightly soft. The skewer test should come out with a few moist crumbs.
How to store blueberry brownies
Store: Keep the brownies in an airtight container in the pantry for 3-4 days.
Freeze: Wrap the brownies individually in cling film and store them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Thaw: Thaw the brownies at room temperature before serving.

Blueberry Brownies
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup almond flour
- 3 Tbsp unsweetened natural cocoa powder, or Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 115 g plain dark chocolate block, broken into squares
- 100 g coconut oil
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar
- 3 large eggs, lightly whisked, at room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries, or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 356ºF (180ºC). Line a 9 x 9 inch square baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the almond meal and cocoa powder. Set aside.
- Melt Chocolate and Oil: Set up a double boiler with a heat-proof bowl over simmering water and add the broken up chocolate and coconut oil. Melt over low-medium heat until smooth and shiny.
- Add Sugar: Once the chocolate is completely melted, remove from heat. Add sugar and whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
- Cool Chocolate Mixture: Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly for about 10 – 15 minutes until it’s no longer hot to the touch otherwise your eggs will curdle when added.
- Add Vanilla and Eggs: Pour in the lightly whisked eggs and vanilla and whisk until well combined.
- Combine with Dry Ingredients: Add the almond and cocoa mixture to the chocolate mixture and gently fold until incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in Blueberries: Fold through one cup of the blueberries.
- Prepare Baking Tin: Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin. Scatter the remaining half a cup of blueberries over the top.
- Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the brownie springs back when touched, and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter. Slightly underbaking brownies will keep them fudgy.
- Cool: Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and enjoy!

- Store: Keep the brownies in an airtight container in the pantry for 3-4 days.

These are insanely good! The blueberry is a glorious addition ! (I did add chopped walnuts because I love a crunch in my brownie). I’m making a second batch now.
