Ingredients:

1/2 cup coconut palm sugar

3 tablespoons avocado oil

1/4 cup plain yogurt

1 banana, mashed

6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup amaranth flour

3/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/8 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons mini chocolate chips

1/4 cup chopped walnuts

2 tablespoons water (optional)

Substitutes:

Coconut palm sugar – white or brown sugar

Avocado oil – any other oil of your choice

Yogurt – unsweetened applesauce or flaxseed meal

Amaranth flour – any other flour of your choice

Procedure:

Preheat the oven to 350F/180C for 15 minutes. 

Line a 9-inch square pan with aluminum foil with the foil hanging on two sides of the pan (so that you can lift the brownie easily off the pan once it is baked) and grease it lightly with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, beat sugar, oil, and yogurt using an electric mixer for about 2 minutes.

Add the mashed banana, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder and beat on low speed.

In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 

Add to the cocoa mixture and stir it well with a spatula to mix well.

If you feel the batter is too thick add water one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. 

Stir in chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. Spread the batter evenly in prepared pan.

Bake in the oven until just set, 23-26 minutes. 

Leave the pan on a cooling rack for about 5 minutes. Now that we have left the aluminum foil hanging, you should be able to lift it off without any trouble. 

Cool it for another 20-30 minutes before you can cut it into slices.
