Gluten-free hot cocoa brownies filled with gooey, sweet marshmallows and rich cacao powder that are perfect for the whole family.
RATE RECIPE
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted grass-fed butter - 1 stick
- ¾ cup maple syrup
- 1 cup unsweetened dark chocolate chips - see note
- ¼ cup cacao powder
- 3 eggs - at room temperature
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup gluten-free oat flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 10 oz. bag gluten-free marshmallows - cut into small pieces (see note)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8x8” baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
- Melt butter, chocolate chips, and maple syrup together in double boiler, whisking continuously until mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together eggs, sugar, and extract on high speed for 2-3 minutes.
- Next, while whisking, slowly pour all of the warm chocolate mixture in with the eggs, sugar and extract. Whisk in until well combined.
- Add oat and almond flour to mixture and stir with a spatula just until combined.
- Stir in 1 cup of marshmallow pieces then pour brownie mixture into prepared pan.
- Bake in the oven for 45-55 minutes. Let cook and enjoy.
Notes
- I used these organic 100% cacao unsweetened dark chocolate chips.
- I couldn’t find any marshmallows without refined sugars, so these marshmallows I found on Vitacost have no soy, corn syrup, artificial flavors, artificial colors, or gelatin. It’s the best to use aside from making your own (which may be my new mission – homemade refined sugar free marshmallow. What do you think?)
