Description

Perfectly minty and gooey vegan gluten free chocolate mint brownies aka greenies that use no refined sugar or artificial food colouring. Candida diet friendly. Tutorial video!


Ingredients

Scale

DRY

WET

  • 200g (7oz) summer squash
  • 150g (5.3oz) unsweetened oat milk
  • 4 tbsps. birch xylitol
  • About 8 drops of liquid stevia + 1 drop of peppermint essential oil

Instructions

  1. First, cut the summer squash into cubes and steam until soft (about 5-6 minutes).
  2. Next, in a big bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients (except the chocolate chips).
  3. Then, in a blender or beaker process the wet ingredients (except stevia and peppermint oil) until smooth.
  4. Mix 1 drop (2 would already be TOO MUCH!) of peppermint essential oil with about 8 drops of liquid stevia and mix it into the wet ingredients. Read below why it’s extremely important to follow this step.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated or use food processor.
  6. Finally, mix in the chocolate chips, transfer the batter into a cake mould lined with parchment paper and bake at 175°C (350°F) for 20-22 minutes.
