Take these five ingredients and blitz yourself a raw, vegan chocolate brownie in no time at all!
Ingredients
- 300 g cashew nuts
- 120 g walnuts
- 110 g raw cacao powder
- 100 g soft dates, pitted
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- agave or pure maple syrup, to taste (optional)
Method
Put all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and blitz until they are well combined and you have a smooth and rather sticky paste. If it is too dry, add 2 or more tablespoons of agave or maple syrup.
Scrape the mixture into a 22 x 15-cm/9 x 6-inch deep baking pan or container, lined with baking parchment and smooth level with your hands. If you don’t have the correct size of pan, lay a sheet of cling film on a board, scrape the mixture onto the sheet and shape it with your hands into a rough rectangle about 2.5 cm/1 inch thick. Wrap in cling film.
Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting into about 6 squares to serve.
