Nut Butter Brownies
These Nut Butter Brownies are an old friend. I grew up making these brownies as a kid, they were one of my favorites. I was so happy when I figured out a way last month to adjust them and make a Paleo version. They are a family favorite!

Notes
**I try to minimize my children's sugar intake, even Paleo sugars. This recipe works with just 1 cup coconut sugar. However, if I am taking these somewhere or sharing them with those who eat more of the standard American diet, I will often use the full 1 1/2 cups of sugar,..We love these with peanut butter, but they also work with other nut butters or sun-butter for a nut-free option!
