No-Bake Brownies

Step 1

Watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Grind the flax seeds in an electric spice/coffee grinder or blender until it's flour. You can also use 65 g of store-bought GROUND flax seeds but make sure the flax meal is fresh.

Step 2

Process all dry ingredients in a food processor, then add the dates and vanilla extract and blend until the dough sticks together when you press it between your fingers. It might take a while until the dough comes together. If it's still too dry after some minutes add a few additional dates or a little maple syrup or raw agave syrup. The dates should be very soft and juicy. If they aren't moist soak them in warm water until they are soft.

Step 3

Line a 5-inch square baking pan (double the recipe if you have an 8-inch baking pan) with parchment paper and leave about a 2-inch overhang on both sides. Grease the paper with a little oil.

Step 4

Transfer the brownie dough into the pan and press it down firmly.

Step 5

To make the glaze, just combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix everything together with a whisk.

Step 6

Pour the glaze over the brownie dough and put the pan into the freezer for about 1 hour to set.

Step 7

Cut into 16 equal brownie bites and enjoy! Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer.
