Rich and Fudgy Gluten Free Peanut Flour Brownies

I’m getting better at gluten free baking, or perhaps I’ve just been using it in recipes where the gluten just doesn’t matter, like cookies and brownies.  I looked into gluten free brownie recipes and just wasn’t satisfied with any of the ones I found, so I made my own.  What came out was super rich, fudgy peanut rich and honestly very good.  The pictures speak for themselves honestly, this recipe is worth a damn.
 

What you need:   

225 g butter, melted  

2 cups sugar 

¾ cup cacao powder 

1 t vanilla 

4 eggs 

1.5 c peanut flour 

.5 cup quinoa flour 

.5 t salt
 

1) Melt the butter in a small sauce pan and add the sugar and cocoa and mix thoroughly.  The mixture will be grainy. 

2) Add this to a large bowl and beat in the eggs one at a time. 

3) Add the vanilla and mix throughly. 

4)Add the flours and salt, mix until combined.  Pour in a 9x13 buttered pan and put in an oven preheated to 350 for 20-30 minutes. The center should be set and the edges should be starting to pull away from the pan.   

5) Let cool for a half hour for the easiest serving, although there’s nothing inherently wrong with destroying a pan of brownies for a fresh one sometimes.
  

While I was only able to eat a small amount I really enjoyed these for what they were.  While I’m not sold on gluten free as a end all be all diet choice, I am enjoying my experiments with it more than I did.   These were richer than even my regular brownies and that’s saying something.
