Fudgy Almond Butter Brownies
(From the wonderful Elana at http://www.elanaspantry.com)
These are by far my favorite treat, especially with some vanilla coconut ice cream scooped on top! I highly recommend raw honey over agave in any recipe, but for a lower glycemic option for diabetics the agave is fine.
1 (16 ounce) jar creamy roasted almond butter
2 eggs1
¼ cups honey (preferred in my opinion!) or agave for diabetics or vegans
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup raw cacao powder
½ teaspoon celtic sea salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup chocolate chunks (I chop up an Endangered Species Dark Chocolate bar)
In a large bowl, blend almond butter until smooth with a hand blender. Blend in eggs, then blend in honey and vanilla. Blend in cacao, salt and baking soda, then fold in chocolate chips. Grease a 9 x 13 baking dishPour batter into dish. Bake at 325° for 25-40 minutes
