If you love intense chocolate flavor, you’ll literally go nuts over these awesome Fudgy Macadamia Mocha Brownies!
They’re rich and fudgy ultra chocolate brownies with chocolate chips, a subtle hint of coffee, a nice crunch of roasted macadamia nuts, a little sea salt. Top-level brownies minus all the calories of sugar.
Move over all you sugars, there’s a new kid in town. Inspired by the Keystone Pantry Allulose Blogger Recipe Challenge, I decided to whip up my all-time favorite dessert, BROWNIES!
My version of healthier fudgy, intense chocolatey ‘Brownies’ with a few add-ins!! BTW….One is not enough and that’s ok with these!
I had never heard of Allulose until this challenge, so let me enlighten you!
Allulose is a rare sugar, meaning that It’s found naturally in dried fruits like jackfruit, figs and raisins, but only in small quantities which makes it difficult to extract from its original source.
It’s Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Kosher Pareve, Diabetic-Friendly, Sugar Alcohol Free, Supports Weight Loss and is Vegan friendly.
Allulose has the same chemical formula as fructose. Because it isn’t metabolized by the body, it does not raise blood sugar or insulin levels.
It also provides a taste and texture remarkably similar to sugar, while providing minimal calories, like 1- calorie per teaspoon (regular sugar is 16 calories per teaspoon) and it doesn’t have the sour or bitter aftertaste like most non-sugar sweeteners.
It isn’t as sweet as sugar so you have to use a little more. For instance, this recipe for regular sugar, is 1 cup, so I used 1 & 1/2 cups of Allulose and remember at 1 calorie per teaspoon, I think we’re already ahead of the sugar game, don’t you?
It bakes well and it has the same bulk and browning characteristics as white sugar when used in baking it will brown faster than sugar so may require a slightly lower cooking temperature.
Allulose is still a pretty new entry to the food scene, and while it may be difficult to find at your local market, you can definitely find it online.
