Gluten Free Nutella Swirl Brownies Food Photo Shoot and Recipe

in #food7 years ago

Ah, chocolate, one of life's best gifts.  Humans have been playing with all sorts of ways to use it, possibly the most legendary being brownies.  Today I took my brownies to the next level by doubling the recipe to make them thick and adding big swirls of nutella. They're also gluten free, making them just a little healthier for those concerned about that.

What you need:

225 Butter

4 eggs

2 cups sugar, 14 oz

2/3 cup cocoa

1 t vanilla

1/2 cup quinoa flour

1/2 cup peanut flour

Start with the butter eggs and sugar in a bowl, cream those together.

You're trying to make this, creamy and lightly whipped.

Add the cacao powder and vanilla and combine.

Then add the flours.

Butter a pan and pour the batter into it, spreading it as evenly as possible.

I used a simple doubler boiler method to make the nutella smoother.  Just some water into a pan heating on the stove. I held the jar in so it was slightly submerged but not touching the bottom.  Thirty seconds of this does a great deal.

Gob it on like so.

Using a toothpick or butterknife, swirl that stuff around.

Bake at about 350 for about a half hour, or until they look like this.

They say those with a craving for chocolate are just magnesium deficient.  If that's the case, these are a healthy magnesium supplement in my opinion!

As always, enjoyed with the view of Acapulco at my feet. 

Thanks for following and supporting, until next time!

These look like exactly the kind of thing chocolate was invented for. And gluten free! This makes the Capt'n happy as he has recently given up gluten for health issues. However, it is like a whole new adventure in baking. Learning how different flours react and interact with other ingredients. Another great magnesium food is pumpkin seeds. The other day we baked some in salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper and mixed them with some crispy caramelised onions. Delicious. Maybe some kind of baked pumpkin seed coated in chocolate could be worth a try. :)

I find the thing about pumpkin seeds especially interesting. Those are one of my favorite snacks!

Ah so good! I eat GF as well. Thanks for the post!

A simple, yet tasty recipe. My favorite kind!

Amazing...love it...now i'm hungry :)

Sounds like an excuse to give the recipe a try!

Oh wow. That looks amazing :]

Hey Lily, an you get all the gluten free flours there? I am a celiac /gluten free person, and I would love to know the flours are there, as they are not here in Ecuador, and those that are, are so expensive!
