FAQs
Can I use a different flour in place of almond flour?
Yes, you can substitute almond flour with other gluten-free flour such as coconut flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. Keep in mind that the texture and flavor may vary depending on the flour used.
Are these brownies dairy-free?
The recipe can be made dairy-free by using coconut oil instead of butter and ensuring that the chocolate chips are dairy-free. Always check the labels of your ingredients to confirm they meet your dietary needs.
How do I know when the brownies are perfectly baked?
Gluten-free brownies are done when the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Overbaking can result in dry brownies, so it’s better to err on the side of slightly underbaked.
Can I add fruits or other mix-ins to the brownies?
Absolutely! Feel free to stir in nuts, dried fruits, or other preferred mix-ins to add texture and flavor. Some popular choices include walnuts, pecans, and dried cherries.
How should I store leftover gluten-free brownies?
Keep the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for a maximum of 3 days. If you need longer storage, you have the option to either refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving if frozen.
