I thought the other day that i haven’t made brownies in quite a long time, so of course that meant i had to create a new brownie recipe for you! These fudgy slices of pure deliciousness are gluten free, rich, decadent and offer an amazing amount tart raspberries to cut through all of that chocolate, drooling! I took my original Fudgy Chocolate Brownie recipe and added a whole lot of raspberries because it’s not only strawberries that pair perfectly with chocolate…
This particular gluten free chocolate brownie recipe is incredibly decadent and not for the faint hearted. I mean if you LOVE chocolate, such as myself, then i believe that you will be able to handle a couple or more slices or these beauties. Everything you look for in a brownie is this exact recipe:
Gluten free
Fudgy
Smooth
Fluffy
Decadent
Rich
Chocolaty
Easy to consume too many
I sit here writing this on my Birthday evening. Today i turned 25 years old, wow i cannot believe i’m already 25! This year i hope to achieve and reach many of my dreams and goals, especially with my plans for this blog. It has been the best thing i have decided to actually execute and stick with. I can proudly say that i love and enjoy every single aspect of what I’m doing. From baking, creating, styling, photographing, publishing to learning to teach myself all the technical tasks and problems that come with this. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you all for supporting my dream and interacting with me, even though this is all virtual, i’m so happy to connect with each and every single one of you!

Hi, just wondering if you could replace the 1tbsp coconut flour with anything else?
Thanks! Lily
Hi Lily, coconut flour is quite absorbent but since this recipe calls for a small amount (1 Tbsp) i would suggest replacing it with either double the amount of desiccated coconut, teff flour or arrowroot flour. Another option that may work is omitting the coconut flour and replacing it with an extra 1-2 Tbsp of the cacao powder. Additionally, if you have cocoa powder on hand, replace the coconut flour with the cocoa powder. I find cocoa powder more dense than raw cacao powder (meaning it will absorb more of the liquid, just like the coconut flour does) so that could work for you also. Hopefully i haven’t confused you too much. Good luck and let me know how you go! xx
