Ingredients

Main Brownie Ingredients

  • 1 cup tahini
  • ½ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour, almond flour, or oat flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup chocolate chips, dairy free if desired

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips, dairy free if desired
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to warm up while you prepare the batter, ensuring the brownies bake evenly.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup tahini, ½ cup coconut sugar, ¼ cup pure maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk these together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add eggs: Beat in 2 eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each to incorporate fully into the wet mixture.
  4. Sift dry ingredients: Into a separate bowl, sift together ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon coconut (or almond or oat) flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt to ensure no lumps remain.
  5. Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, stirring gently but completely combined to form a thick brownie batter.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips: Add ⅓ cup chocolate chips to the batter, folding them in evenly to ensure pockets of melty chocolate throughout the brownies.
  7. Pour into pan: Grease or line an 8x8 inch baking pan, then pour the batter in, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
  8. Bake the brownies: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  9. Prepare chocolate drizzle: While the brownies bake, melt 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon coconut oil together in a small microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
  10. Cool and decorate: Once the brownies are baked, allow them to cool completely in the pan. Then drizzle the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the top for an elegant and tasty finish.
  11. Serve: Cut into squares and enjoy your rich, grain-free tahini brownies as a delightful treat any time.

Notes

  • You can substitute coconut sugar with brown sugar if preferred for a slightly different sweetness profile.
  • Use dairy-free chocolate chips to keep this dessert vegan-friendly and suitable for those with dairy sensitivities.
  • The choice of flour (coconut, almond, or oat) can slightly alter texture; coconut flour will make it denser, almond flour adds moistness, and oat flour offers a mild flavor.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Refrigerate leftovers before serving to firm up the brownies for easier cutting.
