Ingredients
- 100 g 70% dark chocolate
- 200 g avocado flesh about 2 avocados
- 2 eggs
- ½ vanilla pod
- 1 tablespoon water
- 85 g Dutch cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoon demerara or brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey optional
- ½ tablespoon baking soda
- Pinch of sea salt flakes

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C/360°F. Grease with a little olive oil a 8" x 6'' baking pan.
- Melt the chocolate in a heat-proof bowl over a pan of boiling water. Once melted, let it cool a little.
- Add the avocado flesh into a mixer, then fold in eggs, vanilla and water. Blend all ingredients until creamy.
- Add in sugar, cocoa powder, honey if you like and a pinch of sea salt. Mix all ingredients, fold in baking soda and stir until just combined.
- Transfer the mixture into your prepared pan, levelling out the top and spreading well out the mix to all of the edges.
- Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and bake in the oven for 20-25 min, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow to cool completely before taking out of the pan. Cut into square and drizzle with caramel sauce if you like. Enjoy!

Notes
These brownies are very fudgy, add 2 tablespoon of flour into the mixture to get a bit of cake-like texture. You can also add 2 tablespoon almond flour to keep it gluten-free.
