Chocolate Brownies Made with Stevia & Coconut Oil

This recipe is for chocolate brownies and is a little healthier than other brownies because I have simply replaced all of the white cane sugar with a plant based sugar called Stevia. I also have replaced the butter and opted to use coconut oil instead.

I have always enjoyed baking homemade cakes and pastries. With all of the new research emerging about how white sugar negatively affects your health, I decided to use a more healthy sugar to bake with. My  health research has also made me think about the ill affects of butter on the heart and circulation. That’s why I’ve decided to make these substitutions. To my surprise the taste is not impacted much — I do not miss the white sugar or butter. Here’s the recipe for delicious chocolate brownies made with Stevia & Coconut Oil:

Ingredients

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup Stevia
1/2 cup flour
3/4 cups cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup coconut oil
