Ingredients: ¼ teaspoon baking powder,½ cup chocolate chips,¼ cup coconut oil, melted,2 egg whites,¼ teaspoon salt,¼ cup soymilk,½ tsp. Stevia,¼ cup Organic unsweetened applesauce,1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder,1 teaspoon vanilla extract,½ cup chopped walnuts,¾ cup Organic white sugar,½ cup whole-wheat pastry flour
Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8×8 inch square pan. (For V-day, I used a heart-shaped muffin-tin pan, and reduced the baking time by 7 minutes).In a medium bowl, stir together the applesauce, sugar, egg whites, and coconut oil until smooth.
  2. Mix in the soymilk and vanilla extract.
  3. Combine the cocoa powder, whole-wheat flour, Stevia, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; stir into the sugar mixture just until incorporated, being careful not to over mix.If adding walnuts or the chocolate chips, fold in now.
  4. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Dont overcook, because you want the brownies to remain moist.Cool, and cut into squares. Enjoy.
