When you combine Laird Superfood Turmeric Creamer with cookies AND brownies, you get this power-packed, delicious brownie-cookie hybrid (hence the brookie).
Guest recipe by Maiah Miller of Running Girl Health!
Servings: 12-16 pieces
Ingredients
For the cookie (bottom) layer:
- 1 cup gluten-free oats
- 2/3 cup gluten-free oat flour*
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes
- 2 Tbsp Laird Superfood Turmeric Creamer
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 3 Tbsp almond butter
- 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional 2 Tbsp mini non-dairy chocolate chips or cacao nibs
For the brownie (top) layer:
- 2 Tbsp almond butter
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 2/3 gluten-free oat flour
- 1/3 cup almond flour
- 3 Tbsp cacao powder
- 1 Tbsp Laird Superfood Turmeric Creamer
- 1/4 cup hot water
- Sprinkle of extra turmeric creamer and cacao nibs
Directions
- Line a 8" square pan or loaf pan with parchment paper and preheat oven to 350F.
- In a large bowl, whisk the creamer with the hot water first, then mix all the cookie ingredients into the bowl. Fold the chocolate chips or cacao nibs in last.
- Press the mixture into the pan, then prepare the brownie layer.
- Mix the creamer with the hot water again first, then combine all the brownie ingredients until smooth and combined. If mixture is too dry to spread, optionally add 1 to 2 extra tablespoons of water.
- Spread brownie batter on top of cookie base, and sprinkle with cacao nibs.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until brownie layer is set. Let cool on a wire rack, then cut and sprinkle with additional creamer for a garnish and extra nutrients.
*Notes: make your own oat flour by grinding gluten-free oats in a coffee grinder or food processor. You may also make your own almond butter the same way using almonds!
**You may omit the chocolate chips for cacao nibs or vice versa for a sweeter version.
