Paleo Brownies

Ingredients:
1 cup pure maple syrup (or agave)
3/4 cup natural cocoa powder
1 cup almond butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Directions:
Heat syrup on low heat on the stove. Stir in cocoa powder over low heat until smooth. Cocoa can burn fast so keep your eye on it.


Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients until thoroughly mixed.

Pour into an 8x8 baking pan greased with olive oil or coconut oil. Bake at 325F for 40-50 minutes.


Use a toothpick to make sure it's cooked through. Cool before cutting/serving.
