These Healthy Pecan Pie Oatmeal Brownies are the perfect dessert for the Holidays! They’re made with oat flour and almond flour aka with healthier alternative ingredients.
The consistency of these brownies is fudgy!
I gotta say that brownies are my second favorite dessert aside from cookies and these Healthy Pecan Pie Oatmeal Brownies are easy and quick to make!
What ingredients do you need?
The list:
- Oat flour – It’s made from high quality pure oats which are then ground into a fine powder. Perfect for baking and cooking, whatever your diet requires.
- Almond flour – Important ingredient here because it helps on the texture of the brownies.
- Unsweetened cacao powder – You can also use dark cocoa powder.
- Baking soda
- Coconut Sugar – Coconut sugar is a natural sugar from coconuts and 100% tree-to-table, avoiding the use of harmful chemicals and preservatives usually found in conventional sugars.
- Eggs – If vegan, replace with a flax egg.
- Milk of choice – I used unsweetened almond milk but you can use any other kind of plant-based or dairy milk.
- Salt – Adding salt to chocolate recipes is key! It enhances the flavor.
- Coconut oil – I used unrefined coconut oil. But feel free to use any kind of oil!
- Milk – I personally used unsweetened almond milk, as we are going to be adding sugar later on! Feel free to use any type of milk! It doesn’t change flavor on this recipe.
- Chocolate Chips – I used 60% dark chocolate chips.
- Pecans
The Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Then spray a bread pan with coconut oil cooking spray or use parchment paper.
- Prepare – In a bowl, add almond flour, oat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and chocolate chips into a large bowl. Whisk until there are no more lumps.
- Add and Mix – Then, add-in an egg, almond butter, maple syrup, milk and mix until combined. Add in melted coconut oil and mix one more time. Your batter should be fudgy thicker than normal brownie batter.
- Transfer – Transfer batter into bread pan and top with a few more chocolate chips.
- Bake – Bake at 350ºF for 16-18 minutes, making sure not to over bake. Remove brownies from oven and sprinkle on some sea salt. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
