Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time20 minutes
Total Time1 hour 30 minutes
Servings16 servings

Equipment

  • 9x9-inch baking pan
  • large bowl
  • small bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond butter
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 whole egg and 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

For the chocolate ganache frosting:

  • 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
  • 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles or rainbow coated chocolate chips

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the almond butter, maple syrup, egg and egg yolk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
  • Add in the cocoa powder, then whisk again to fully combine the brownie batter.
  • Transfer the batter to your prepared baking pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted down the center of the brownies comes out mostly clean.
  • Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes.
  • Once brownies are slightly cool, make the chocolate ganache by melting together the chocolate chips and non-dairy milk in 30 second bursts in the microwave. Once the chocolate has melted, stir together the ganache until it’s smooth and combined.
  • Pour the ganache over the brownies and top with sprinkles. Then, transfer the brownies to the fridge for 1 hour, or until the ganache is firm.
  • Remove the brownies from the pan and cut into squares. Enjoy right away or store in the fridge for later on!
