No-Bake Brownies

A way to give in to your sweet tooth but staying healthy at the same time – is there anything better?! Helen Goodall has kindly shared this quick and easy recipe with us all. Walnuts are one of the most nutritious nuts, containing the most omega-3. Thank you, Helen, for sharing this with us!

Ingredients

• 115g Walnuts
• 235g dates, pitted
• 110g almond butter
• 50g unsweetened cocoa powder
• 38g crushed pecans

 Method

• Process the walnuts and dates in a food processor until finely ground.
• Add the almond butter and process until well mixed then add the cocoa powder and pulse to mix well.
• Transfer to a 20cm square baking tin lined with baking paper. Use your fingers to press the mixture evenly into the tin. (Top tip: use some baking paper on top of the mixture as you press it into the tin so it doesn’t stick to your hands.)
• Once the mixture is firmly pressed into the tin, sprinkle the top evenly with the crushed pecans, pressing them into the top of the brownies.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares.
