THESE BROWNIES ARE FUDGEY PERFECTION!
If you didn’t know, you wouldn’t know these brownies are both vegan AND grain-free!
These brownies are a crowd pleaser to say the least. Whether you are following a Paleo, gluten-free, or vegan style of eating, these work for you! If you are a person who simply loves brownies (like my kids) these also work for you!
For me, I sometimes crave desserts that remind me of my childhood, just with better ingredients of course. These vegan grain-free brownies, totally hit the spot! They are rich, fudgey, perfection.
I hope you love them as much as my family does!
If you want to make these lower in carb I suggest swapping out the sweeteners for lakanto ones. They work perfectly!
