Instructions
 

Cashew Butter Brownies

  • Pre-heat oven to 325F degrees. Line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper. Note: If you have a stand mixer, use that for ease. Otherwise, all can be combined by hand.
  • Place cashew butter in a mixing bowl and whisk until oil is blended well and butter is light with air. Add egg, then vanilla and honey; continue whisking until fully incorporated.
  • Combine cocoa, salt and baking soda. Add into cashew butter mixture.
  • Lastly, fold in chocolate chips.
  • Pour batter into loaf pan and bake for 25-35 minutes, until slightly firm, but still with a little jiggle. This time will vary based on your oven, the type of butter used and the amount of oil in the butter.
  • Remove from oven and let cool for at least ten minutes before serving. Enjoy!
