Ingredients you'll need to make healthy brownie bites
Scroll down to the recipe card below for full information on ingredients and amounts.
- Almond Butter: Use creamy almond butter for a smoother, fudgier texture. Make sure it’s well-stirred and not too runny or too stiff—I like to use Barney's almond butter.
- Almond Flour: Opt for super-fine almond flour (not almond meal). It blends easily and gives the brownie balls a fudgy, soft dough-like consistency without any grittiness.
- Maple Syrup: It acts as both a natural sweetener and binder in this recipe.
- Chocolate Chips: I love using Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips for a rich flavor without being overly sweet. If you’re using a sweeter brand like Nestlé, consider reducing the maple syrup slightly.
- Cocoa Powder: Unsweetened Hershey’s cocoa powder brings deep, classic chocolate flavor. Be sure to use unsweetened cocoa to control the sweetness.
- Salt: Just a pinch of salt balances the sweetness and enhances the chocolate flavor.

Can you use regular flour?

Hi, You can use regular flour, but I recommend heat-treating it first, as raw flour may contain harmful bacteria and isn’t safe to eat as-is - Maria
