First attempt lo-carb brownies
Sep. 29th, 2013 05:19 pm1 t ground flax seed
1/4 c boiling water
3/4 c coconut flour
1/2 c cocoa (grenada, better and richer than most)
2 T olive oil (or other oil - I'd use a nut oil if not suddenly impractical)
1/2 t baking soda
1/8 t salt
1 c soy milk
1/4 coconut milk yogurt (as an acid source for the baking soda, mostly)
Stevia to taste (I used Truvia - maybe a teaspoon? And I don't like it that sweet.)
Preheat over to 350.
Mix boiling water into flax seeds, until viscous.
Mix in dry ingredients and oil.
And then mix in wet ingredient.
Put into a 5" round baking dish.
It's currently in the oven, baking at 350. I'm suspecting that I might want to use melted chocolate in the next rev, but this will help create a baseline. Obviously, I'm posting this before it's even done (a weird habit of mine) so it might be terrible, though I'm guessing at least edible.
Hm. I could totally make crepes with coconut flour and flax seed...
