Notes

  • To make Eggless Brownies, you’ll need to change the amounts of the following ingredients 1 1/2 cups Nut/Cassava Free Grain Free Flour Blend, 2 tablespoons Gelatin, 1/4 cup Coconut Oil. And you’ll need 1/2 cup pumpkin puree. To prepare, combine all the dry ingredients, then add in the wet ingredients. Then prepare the chocolate and oil as per step 4. Then follow the remaining steps as per the instructions.
  • To make AIP Brownies, you’ll need the following ingredients:  1 1/2 cup Nut/Cassava Free Grain Free Flour Blend, 2 tablespoons gelatin, 1 cup carob, 1 cup coconut sugar, 1 cup Pumpkin purée, 1/2 cup Coconut Milk and 1/2 cup Coconut Oil. To make the brownies, combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl then stir in the wet ingredients. Pour into an 8x8 baking dish and bake according to instructions above.
  • For the Dairy Free Chocolate Brownies recipe as well as the Eggless Brownie recipe, I tried using cocoa powder, but dairy free chocolate chips produced much better results.
  • For dairy free chocolate chips try Hu or Enjoy Life. Hu uses coconut sugar which is always preferred over refined sugar. However, if you need to be nut free (other than coconut) Enjoy Life is made in a nut free facility (please check with company before buying as they can change facilities and/or ingredients at any time). 
  • If you’d like to make this recipe nut free, substitute coconut sugar for maple sugar, coconut milk for another type of milk (tigernut milk for AIP) and the coconut oil with avocado oil. Additionally, you’ll need to use the Enjoy Life chocolate chips as they are made in a nut free facility (although you should always read the ingredients as companies will and do change their facilities, policies, and ingredients without notice).
  • You can also use sweet potato puree as a substitute for the pumpkin puree.
  • Please note that the Beth Blends Nut/Cassava/Grain Free Flour Blend is a self-rising flour made with tigernut, arrowroot and plantain flour as well as cream of tartar and baking soda. Tigernut flour is not a nut but a tuber, so it’s considered nut free.
  • For the egg free version, no need to make a gelatin egg. You can just add the gelatin with the dry ingredients. It simplifies the recipe.
