I don’t know about you but I’m a bit of a chocolate lover. These super quick and easy brownie bites give all the goodness of a regular brownie but without the added sugar, butter or white flour.
Allergies? No worries, they are gluten, dairy and nut free. And for those of you not keen on the avocado or black bean brownie recipes- this one’s a must try!
