    Recipe Introduction


    Original recipe from Gluten-Free Mommy (aka Natalie), modified by BL Olson

    List of Ingredients




    3 oz. unsweetened cf chocolate, chopped
    6 tablespoons of coconut oil or cf margarine
    2 eggs
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 Tsp orange extract
    3/4 teaspoon vanilla
    pinch of salt
    1/4 cup rice flour
    1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
    3/4 cup almonds, ground coarsely

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    Prepare an 8 inch square baking pan.

    Combine the chopped unsweetened chocolate and the coconut oil in a medium saucepan, and cook over very low heat; stir until smooth.

    Remove from heat and set aside.

    In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until foamy.

    Whisk in the sugar, orange extract, vanilla, and salt until combined.

    In a separate small bowl, whisk the xanthan gum and rice flour together.

    Stir the melted chocolate into the large bowl with the egg/sugar mixture.

    Add the flour mixture and mix until just blended.

    Fold in the coarsely ground almonds. (I ground my almonds in a mini-food processor, but did not grind them into a fine meal because I wanted a crunch to my brownie. Either way is fine.)

    Put the batter in the greased baking dish and cook for about 30 minutes. Let cool.

    Makes about 9 big squares. (I am not sure, I didn't cut them and before I knew what happened they vaporized - lol BL)
