Author: Healthy Cooking Daily
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 9-12
- 1 c raisins
- ¾ c water
- 1 c almond butter
- ½ c honey
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ¼ c milk (I used almond)
- 1 egg
- ½ cocoa or cacao powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ - ½ c chocolate chips
- 12 TBL softened butter (I used Myoko's vegan butter)
- 7 TBL honey
- ¼ - ½ tsp peppermint flavor
- 1- 1½ tsp Matcha powder
- Preheat oven to 350 °F
- Grease an 11 x 7 or 9 x 9 pan
- Boil the raisins and water for 5-10 minutes until they get soft, then set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- Transfer the raisins to a high speed blender and blend on high until you get a smooth paste. Add a few tablespoons of water if it seems to thick.
- In a small bowl add all the dry ingredients and set aside.
- In a large bowl add wet ingredients, including raisin paste, and mix with a hand/stand mixer, adding the egg last.
- Add the dry (except chips) to the wet and mix on medium speed, scraping the bowl as necessary.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and transfer to the greased pan.
- Cook for 35-40 minutes and cool completely before frosting.
- Add the butter to a medium bowl and beat with a hand/stand mixer.
- Add honey and peppermint and blend together.
- Add the Matcha powder and continue to mix and scrape down the sides of the bowl until super smooth.
- Adjust your flavors here, use more honey/peppermint/Matcha as needed.
- Spread frosting on the cooled brownies. This will give you a thick layer.
- Enjoy!
