Deliciously moist and naturally sweetened, these Date Brownies combine rich cocoa with chewy dates for a healthier twist on a classic dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup pitted Medjool dates
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan.
  2. Soak dates in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain.
  3. In a food processor, blend dates until smooth.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine cocoa powder, almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Add the eggs, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and pureed dates to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
  6. Fold in chopped walnuts if using.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.

Notes

For extra fudginess, refrigerate the brownies for an hour before serving. Serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream makes a perfect decadent treat.
