Full of Magnesium!

We wanted to share with you a delicious and completely guilt-free brownie recipe - these are the perfect snack to have before bed to help give you that magnesium boost as you go to sleep.

• Preheat oven to 180 C
• Lightly grease a brownie tin with coconut oil, preferably 9" x 9", then line with parchment paper. (oil helps the paper stick to the sides)
• Blend chia seeds into a powder and mix with the 4 tbsp of water. Set aside to thicken
• In a large mixing bowl, add the melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup and vanilla extract.
• Whisk thoroughly to combine and start dissolving the coconut sugar
• Add chia seed mix and whisk once more to combine
• Add baking powder, sea salt and cacao powder and whisk
• Add gluten free flour and almond meal and fold in with a spatula until just mixed.
• If your mix seems a bit dry, add in your milk of choice here and lightly fold until just combined.
• Add batter to prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer with spatula
• Sprinkle crushed cashews on top if desired
• Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the edges appear dry and slightly fluffy. Check the center is no longer wet or sticky
• Remove from oven and let cool for at least 30-40 minutes (the longer cool time, the less fragile the brownie will become)
• Gently lift out of the pan and using a sharp knife, cut into the desired number of squares.
• Store cooled leftovers in airtight container in fridge for up to a few days (if they last that long in your house!). Alternatively they will keep in freezer for up to a month.
