If you are trying to be healthier & cut out refined sugar but have a super sweet tooth like me.. these no bake brownies are for you. Packed with whole food ingredients to make us feel good inside and out. They are the perfect pick me up! We are using dates in this recipe, as a replacement to sugar because they naturally sweet and are really good at creating a caramel like consistency. They also boost many health benefits, such as, they are high in fibre...(so they are great for the gut)high in antioxidants & by weight contain 50% more potassium than bananas!

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. 1)Place the dates for the brownie & the caramel in two separate bowls & soak in enough boiling water to cover them. Leave for ten minutes to soften.
  2. 2)Lets make the brownie first, Start by making the flax egg by mixing the flax seed & water in a small bowl and leaving to set for 10 minutes.
  3. 3)Blend the pecans & oats till ground then remove from the blender.
  4. 4)Drain the (brownies)dates of the water & blend until broken down. Add the rest of the ingredients of the brownie (apart from the flax egg)and Blend until a brownie dough forms then remove from the blender & fold in the flax egg.
  5. 5)to make the simple caramel, drain the dates of their water & blend until broken down, add the peanut butter & salt and continue to blend until a caramel mix forms. For a runnier consistency you could add a little bit of plant milk of choice.
  6. 6)Prepare a baking tray with parchment paper, spoon half the brownie mix into the tray and spread it out evenly. Spread the caramel mix over the top. Then spread over the remaining brownie mix. Place in the fridge for an hour to set. Then remove from the fridge and slice into 16 squares.

Notes

you could eat these straight away If you prefer a soft brownie. We prefer putting ours in the fridge to firm up first, as they are then easier to slice.     SWAPS: you can use chia seeds instead of flaxseeds for the flax egg. you can use walnuts instead of pecans for the brownie mix. choose gluten free oats to make this gluten free you could use almond butter instead of peanut butter for the simple caramel sauce
