    ✔️ Why should you try it?

    • Quick and easy to make.
    • Gluten-free.
    • Can be served as a dessert with ice cream.

    🥘 Ingredients

    • Dark Chocolate - 70% cocoa solids is best for this recipe.
    • Butter - 250g of unsalted butter.
    • Vanilla Extract - gives the brownies a lovely depth of flavour.
    • Caster Sugar - or use half caster sugar and half light brown sugar.
    • Eggs - 3 large eggs.
    • Ground Almonds - helps make the brownies fudgy and moist.
    • Raspberries - 125g of fresh raspberries are needed for this recipe.

    🔪 Instructions

    The recipe card with ingredient quantities and detailed instructions can be found at the bottom of the post

    One: Melt the butter and chocolate together in a large saucepan over a medium heat then beat in the sugar. Take off the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes.

    Two: Beat in the eggs until fully combined and add the vanilla extract.

    Three: Next, stir in the ground almonds.

    Four: Finally fold in the raspberries and pour the brownie mix into a 20 x 30 cm baking tin lined with baking paper. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes and allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.

    🍴 Serving suggestions

    I like to serve these flourless raspberry brownies just as they are, cut into large bars, and enjoyed with a glass of cold milk. I sometimes serve the brownies for pudding with a scoop of homemade honeycomb ice cream.

    My eldest daughter often requests these brownies as her birthday 'cake', which suits me just fine, as I don't have to faff around with icing and decorating a cake!

    📖 Variations

    Vary the fruit by adding blueberries or blackberries instead of raspberries. You could also use frozen raspberries instead fresh (there is no need to defrost them).

    Dried fruit like cranberries or raisins could also be added in place of the fresh raspberries.

    For added texture, a handful of chopped walnuts would make a lovely addition, as would white chocolate chips (about 50g would be about right).

    🥡 Storage

    The cooled, cut brownies can be stored in an airtight tin or container for up to 5 days. Alternatively, they can be frozen for up to 3 months.

    ❓ FAQS

    How long should you let brownies cool for?

    Brownies will cut into squares much more easily if they are completely cool. I usually try and leave them overnight in their tin, but at the bare minimum, they should be left to cool for 1 hour before slicing.

    However, if you're serving the brownies as a warm pudding, they can be served straight out of the oven.

    How do I make my brownies fudgy?

    The key is not to overcook the brownies. Take them out of the oven when they just start to pull away from the sides of the tin but the middle is only just set. Once cooled they will firm up and can be sliced into squares.
