Grain-Free Almond Butter Brownies
These grain-free almond butter brownies are not only the perfect ooey, gooey, chocolatey treat — but also completely gluten-free too!
Not only are these grain-free, but they are also refined-sugar free, and some of the most gooey brownies you will ever make!
These almond butter brownies are super simple to make and are great for when you want to bake something sweet but want to stick to your clean eating lifestyle. What gives these brownies their sweet taste, and gooey texture is the mashed bananas and raw honey.
If you don’t really like bananas I would still suggest trying out this recipe because the banana taste is not overly powerful in the end product. But they are still gooey and moist, just as brownies should be! š
