PB2 Flourless Chocolate Brownies

These brownies are pretty amazing! Made with PB2 (powdered peanut butter) instead of flour plus cocoa powder, raw honey and chocolate chips – moist and delicious, you won’t believe they’re only around 130 calories each!

I’m not a baker. Baking is an edible science that requires accuracy and precision. It requires the perfect balance between flours, leaveners, fats, and liquids. When I bake, I feel more like a mad scientist because I break all the rules. So when something actually works and turns out awesome, I’ll be honest, I’m often surprised! These brownies are the perfect example – no flour, no oil or butter, but they are amazing (happy dance)! And the best part, you don’t need a fancy mixer. I mixed this all by hand in a large bowl with a whisk and a spatula.

If you’ve never heard of PB2[1], it’s basically a powdered peanut butter with 85% less fat. You add a little water to make it a spreadable peanut butter. I personally prefer real peanut butter if I’m spreading it on toast, but for baking and adding to smoothies, PB2[2] is excellent. I used to buy it on Amazon, but now I see it in my local supermarket. Here’s the Amazon link[3] if you can’t find it near you.

Moist, chocolatey and delicious, you will LOVE them! They also happen
to be gluten-free, and if you use dairy-free chips they can be
dairy-free as well. If you have nut allergies however, these are not for
you. But the these Amazing Flourless Brownies[4] are your nut-free answer. They are made with black beans instead of flour but I swear, you’ll never know!
