- 4 tbsp maple syrup/ honey
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Combine all ingredients for brownie above in a bowl.
- Place mixture into a lined brownie tin, and bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 12-15 mins until just underdone. Take out and allow to cool.
- Allow to sit for a minimum of 1/2 an hour so that they are able to cool down and firm up a little more
FOR THE FROSTING
- Warm the coconut oil in a pan on the stove and allow it to melt.
- Add in the nut butter and take off heat. Stir in the raw cocoa, maple syrup and vanilla.
- Pour glaze over brownies and leave to cool. Place in fridge and allow to set for a minimum of 2 hours
