Raw Pecan Brownies


These brownies are made without any baking, completely gluten free and very addictive!

I have used pecans, but you can also use walnuts as the base, whatever your taste preference is!

You will need:


For The Base
One Cup of Dates
One Cup of Pecans
1/2 Cup of Raw Cacao Powder
1/2 Cup of Brazil Nuts (Chopped)
1/2 Cup of Coconut Flakes
One Teaspoon of Vanilla Essence
One Tablespoon of Coconut Oil

For The Topping
1/3 Cup of Coconut Oil
1/3 Cup of Cacao Powder
50g of 85% + Dark Chocolate
One Teaspoon of Honey (I use Raw Manuka Honey)
One Teaspoon of Vanilla Essence
Pinch of Salt


In a food processor add all the base ingredients accept for the pecans. Blitz together until everything is mixed, then add the pecans in. Blitz again for another few seconds leaving larger pecans bits in to get some added crunch.
Then in a rectangular dish, put the base mixture in and press down so that it is evenly layered across the dish.
Then put in the freezer for 30 minutes.

To make the topping - heat all the ingredients up in a saucepan then pour on top of the base mixture. Pop back into the freezer for another 15 minutes.

Then the brownies are ready! I added some pecans halves to the top of mine and cut them into bite size squares. I also sprinkle them with a bit of salt to cut through the sharpness of the chocolate!
Best kept in the fridge to stop them from melting!


Enjoy,
