Yes, there is a brownie that you can indulge in and still lose wait or stay on track with your healthy diet. This is the recipe! These brownies are Paleo and gluten free.

Paleo Chocolate Almond Brownies

1 c Almond flour

2 tbs Almond butter

1 tbs instant coffee
3 tbs cocoa powder

1/4 c almond milk

4 egg whites

3 packets stevia or 2 tbs honey

1 tsp baking soda

2 tsp cinnamon

1 melted dark chocolate bar ( I use 88% or darker)

1 tbs coconut oil

Directions

Preheat the oven for 350 degrees. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Melt the almond butter and the chocolate separately then add to the dry mixture. Whisk the four egg whites and add to the mixture, along with the almond milk and coconut oil.

Once everything is mixed, it should look like this!

 Next pour mixture in a 9 X 9 baking dish, if you don't have a dish fold, tin foil like I did below. Make sure to spray the dish or the foil with non- stick spray.

Place the the pan or foil in the oven and bake for 20 mins! These are so good! I recommend storing them in the refrigerator and serving with blueberries.
