What you need

cup cashew butter

cup coconut sugar

tbsp coconut oil

cup unsweetened cocoa

cup butternut squash

tsp baking powder

tbsp maple syrup

cup oat flour

tsp vanilla extract

avocado

tbsp unsweetened almond milk
cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. First, you’ll roast the butternut squash in the oven drizzled with a little oil and sprinkled with salt. You’ll need to roast the squash or about 25-30 minutes until soft and golden. Next, add the cashew butter, cacao powder, vanilla and date sugar to a food processor or blender. When the butternut squash is done roasting, add that to the food processor and blend until smooth. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and dark chocolate chips. Add the blended butternut squash mixture to the flour mixture and stir together to create the brownie “batter”. Spread the batter into a parchment-lined 8x8 square baking pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Allow the brownies to cool before frosting and slicing. Store covered on your counter for up to 3 days. You may refrigerate as well.View original recipe
