Semi-Sweet & Semi-Clean Brownies

1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 packet Stevia powder
1 1/4 cup cocoa powder
4 large eggs
1 cup un-sweetened applesauce
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar
powder sugar for dusting (optional)

Preheat oven to 300 and grease 8x8 glass pan with non-stick spray. Whisk pastry flour, salt and cocoa powder together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk  together eggs, vanilla, brown sugar, Stevia and applesauce until smooth and creamy. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk to blend just until mixed thoroughly .  Do not over mix. Pour batter into prepared baking pan. Bake at 300 for approximately 45 minutes. Please make sure to check brownies after 35 minutes with a toothpick for different over temp variations and climate conditions. Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes. Invert onto a cutting board and allow to cool completely. Once cooled, dust with powder sugar and decorate or you could top with a clean frosting of your choice. Slice using a serrated bread knife and transfer to a serving platter or tray. Enjoy!

About Me

Galloway, OH, United States
I like helping people in any way I can especially with their fitness goals. I enjoy the outdoors, watching movies in bed with my husband, HGTV, the Food Network and just living as simple life as I can. I don't like being rushed, or running from place to place. Life is meant to be enjoyed and savored. Smile, laugh, love and give hugs as much as possible. Stop and breathe.
