HEALTHY SNACKS: CAROB BROWNIES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, carob powder and baking powder. In a separate bowl, thoroughly mix remaining ingredients except nuts. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix well.

GLUTEN-FREE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Prepare to bake. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-inch baking pan with 2 pieces of parchment paper, going opposite ways, leaving enough paper to cover the sides and hang over the edges. Grease the paper. Melt the butter and chocolate. Put the butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute. Whisk together the melted butter and chocolate. If there are any remaining chunks of chocolate, microwave for 30 seconds more. Stir well.
• Make the batter. Let the butter-chocolate mixture sit until it is cool to the touch. Add the sugar and stir until it is dissolved. Add the eggs, one at a time, stirring between each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Add the teff flour and stir the batter thoroughly with a rubber spatula for at least 1 minute. Toss in the hazelnuts and chocolate chips and stir until just combined.
• Bake the brownies. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly into the corners. Bake until the edges have begun to pull away from the pan and the center is just starting to set, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool the brownies in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Using the overhanging parchment as handles, lift the brownies out of the pan; cool the brownies on a cooling rack. Remove the parchment and dig in.

GLUTEN-FREE WALNUT BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° and prepare an 8×8 or 9×9 or 7x11 inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
• Melt the butter and chocolate chips together. It's easiest to use a microwave-safe bowl and just microwave them for 30-40 seconds, stir, microwaved again, etc. until the butter and chocolate are smoothly melted together. You can also do this step in a double boiler.
• Stir in sugar and vanilla. Add the eggs.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together cornstarch and unsweetened cocoa powder.
• Stir these dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture. Since you're not stirring flour and activating gluten you'll need to stir these brownies a bit longer than you would regular brownies. When the mixture starts to pull away from the side of the bowl, stir in the walnuts. (Toasting the walnuts will enhance the flavor).
• Spread brownie batter in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes. The brownies are done when an inserted toothpick comes out mostly clean. Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
