I recently started seeing a homeopathic doctor<\/a> and she put me on a non-permanent diet of NO WHEAT, NO DAIRY<\/strong>, and NO REFINED SUGAR <\/strong>while I’m going through a liver cleanse. At first I was like…”What the heck am I going to eat”!\u00a0Keep in mind I\u00a0LOVE<\/strong> sweets. Love them!\u00a0Well needless to say I like a challenge, especially when it comes to food preparation. I’ve been\u00a0doing just fine. I’m making cookies and treats…and eating them daily (several) and losing\u00a0a bit of weight without exercising. Whatever I’m doing is doing well for my body.\u00a0I may try to continue to limit even after my doctor gives me permission to eat them again. I only miss good\u00a0bread, good pizza and a good hamburger. Other than that I’m not missing much. I will continue to try to master these 3 favorites, however.<\/p>\n

Today my\u00a0self-challenge was to make the best gluten-free, dairy-free,\u00a0refined sugar-free brownies. And I succeeded at that with these Healthier<\/strong> Brownies<\/strong>. My husband, a<\/span> <\/span>HUGE<\/strong> skeptic on anything\u00a0even remotely healthy, said they taste like regular brownies.\u00a0That\u00a0confirmed\u00a0my thought that this\u00a0Healthier Brownie<\/strong> <\/span>recipe is a\u00a0keeper!\u00a0It made me so very happy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

One thing is for certain, I am super picky. So anything I make MUST<\/strong> taste very, very close to the real thing (85% is my absolute minimum). If not, it’s trash-bound. I am very\u00a0serious about that. So you can rest assure this Healthier<\/strong> Brownies<\/strong> <\/span>recipe is dang good!<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong><\/span> For those of you who are used to reading my blog posts, I have decided to change my style from step-by-step pictures to just a few pictures. I needed to do this to save time to allow me to continue to blog. I’m hoping you still get some useful tips and guidance as you try out my recipes. Please comment below if desired.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2> \n
\n \n \n
3\/4 cups ground raw sugar (grind in blender or food processor) (you may substitute granulated or brown sugar)<\/li> \n \n
2 tablespoons honey<\/li> \n \n
1\/4 cup coconut oil (you may substitute regular butter)<\/li> \n \n
1\/4 cup dairy free butter (you may substitute regular butter)<\/li> \n \n
1\/2 teaspoon sea salt<\/li> \n \n
1\/4 mashed avocado (mash well so no chunks remain)<\/li> \n \n
2-3 drops stevia liquid (you may substitute stevia powder)<\/li> \n \n
1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla extract<\/li> \n \n
3\/4 cups unsweetened dutch-process cocoa or baking cocoa<\/li> \n \n
3 Large eggs<\/li> \n \n
3\/4 cups all-purpose gluten-free flour (you may substitute regular all-purpose flour)<\/li> \n \n
1 teaspoon baking powder<\/li> \n \n

\n
\n Directions\n <\/h2> \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n Step 1\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Grease an 8\" square baking or small bar pan (I lined mine with a foil sling and then sprayed with cooking spray).<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 2\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Place the raw sugar, honey, coconut oil, dairy free butter, and salt in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the butter\/oil melts and the mixture lightens in color. This helps melt the sugar to give the brownies a shiny crust.<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 3\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Add the mashed avocado, stevia, vanilla and cocoa powder to the bowl and add the eggs one at a time, whisking until shiny.<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 4\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Fold in the flour and the baking powder until just combined. Stir in the chips and\/or nuts, if you're using them.<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 5\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it to meet the edges.<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 6\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Bake the brownies at 350 degrees for 18-21 minutes (small bar\/brownie pan 15-18 min), until the top is set. Begin testing with a cake tester or toothpick inserted at the earliest time. You can\u2019t test too early; do not over-bake.<\/td> <\/tr> \n
\n Step 7\n <\/td> \n \n \n <\/td> Remove from the oven and cool for about 15 minutes before cutting. Once the brownies are cool, cover tightly with plastic.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/table> <\/div> <\/div>\n
