Gluten Free Vegan Gooey Brownies
The last brownies you’re ever going to make. They are guilt-free with wholesome healthy ingredients. I’ve made notes that can convert this recipe easily into Paleo. This recipe is also low in sugar and can be modified with added syrup in case you need it sweeter. Just try the batter before placing it into the oven and add more sugar in case my low sugar version isn’t indulging enough.
This one is a keeper!

Notes
For Paleo recipe- Substitute Baking Powder for Baking Soda & Substitute Flax meal for 2 eggs.
For a low sugar please substitute half of the amount of sugar with Lakanto Monk Fruit, or Erythritol, this will makes this recipe low glycemic.
For a completely sugar free option instead of Sugar cane- Use Lakanto Monk Fruit or organic non-GMO Erythritol. Instead of Maple Syrup use Lakanto Maple Syrup.
