Gluten-free nutty brownies
(Makes 12)
Ingredients
- 100g Graham’s the Family Dairy unsalted butter
- 250g dark chocolate
- 200g caster sugar
- 100g Graham’s the Family Dairy Protein 22 Raspberry
- 100g oat flour
- 3 large eggs
- 100g mixed nuts
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/Fan 160°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4.
- Grease and line a 23cm square tin. In a medium saucepan heat the butter until just melted. Break the chocolate into pieces and add to the pan.
- Stir over a very low heat until fully melted and combined. Remove from the heat.
- Stir in the sugar and Protein 22. Beat well. Next add the oat flour and the eggs. Again beat well until mixed through properly.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tin then scatter the top with the nuts.
- Bake for 25 minutes until slightly risen, but still a little soft in the middle.
- Allow to cool fully before placing in the fridge for at least 2 hours. This helps the brownies develop a fudge-like texture.
- Slice into squares or whatever shape you fancy and serve with another dollop of Protein 22, or simply on its own.
