Servings: 16
Servings: 1g
Ingredients
- I will start with the brownie ingredients and then the topping ingredients will follow.
- Medjool Dates– 1 ½ cups. Soaked and pits removed.
- Walnuts– 2 cups.
- Shredded Coconut– ½ cup
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder– ¼ cup.
- Vanilla Extract– 1-2 teaspoons.
- Coconut Oil– 1 tablespoon melted.
- Peanut Butter– 3 tablespoons.
- Coconut Oil– 3 tablespoons melted.
- Maple Syrup- 1 ½ tablespoon.
- Vanilla Extract– ½ teaspoon.
- Optional- salt as needed , vegan chocolate chips can be used for decoration.
Instructions
- Start by soaking the dates for a half hour and then allow them to drain. Remove the pits as well before using them in this recipe.
- Line a square baking dish with parchment paper that overhangs the sides of the dish. This will help you remove the brownies before cutting them up into servings.
- Use a food processor or strong blender to make this.
- Pulse the walnuts until they resemble a course flour in consistency. You may need to stop as needed to scrap done the sides of the container.
- Next add the dates, shredded coconut, unsweetened cocoa powder, (first) vanilla extract and (first) melted coconut oil. Blend these ingredients until they form a 'sticky' paste consistency. Then transfer this to the prepared baking dish, pressing the mixture in to even it out.
- For the caramel topping, place the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until combined. Then evenly spread this topping over the brownies and refrigerate for at least two hours, or until the caramel gets firm.
- These brownies should be stored in an air tight contain. They should keep for up to seven days.
Recipe Notes
I mentioned that to melt your coconut oil, place it in microwave safe bowl or container. Heat the coconut oil on medium, stopping to stir and check for melting every 15 second. Then measure out the amount needed for this recipe.
Also, it is important to read the labels on the ingredients that you are using to make sure that they are indeed vegan.
When choosing chocolate chips, make sure that you are using vegan chocolate chips instead of chips that have dairy added to them (milk chocolate..). Sugar Free diet followers can use vegan sugar free chocolate chips in this recipe.
