INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 cup coconut oil

• 1/3 cup coconut sugar

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1 egg at room temperature

• 2/3 cup almond flour

• 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1/8 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 12 Driscoll's raspberries

• For the drizzle:

• 2 tablespoons dairy free or vegan chocolate chips

• 1/4 teaspoon coconut oil

INSTRUCTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. There are two ways to make these brownies, by using two small skillets or a loaf pan: Grease two 5-inch skillets generously with coconut oil OR line an 8x4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

2 Place a small saucepan over low heat, add coconut oil and coconut sugar and stir until the coconut oil is completely melted and mixture is shiny. Set aside to cool for just a few minutes, then transfer to a medium bowl and whisk in eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.

3 Next add in the dry ingredients: almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt; stirring until smooth. The batter will be fairly thick. Spread in prepared pan or evenly in the two skillets. Push the raspberries into the top of the brownie batter.

4 If you are baking them in the skillets, bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges start to pull away from the pan. If you are baking the brownies in the loaf pan, bake for 18-23 minutes until edges are set. It's always better to underbake your brownies so they remain fudgy. After baking, transfer to a wire rack to cool before cutting and serving.

5 To make the chocolate drizzle: Place a small saucepan over low heat and add chocolate chips and coconut oil, stirring until completely smooth. Drizzle over brownies. Serves 8.
