Grain-Free Fudgy Brownie Cookies (Refined Sugar Free, Dairy Free, Vegan Option)

cookiesdessertsnacksvegan

Basically, this is what would happen if fudgy brownies became cookies—or put another way, if you got to eat a whole plate of brownies and they were ALL the corner piece 🙌. These Fudgy Brownie Cookies are grain free, refined sugar free, and super friendly for your blood sugar. They can also be vegan, with the substitution of flax egg.

The center is super ooey gooey and the outside is crackly—they might be the best cookie I’ve ever created (sorry shoutout to my Best Healthy Cookie). And they’re made in one bowl!

Grain-Free Fudgy Brownie Cookies

You’re telling me eating cookies can be good for my blood sugar?

Yes, yes I am. Traditional cookie recipes can be too sweet and carb-heavy, spiking blood sugar levels. This combination also makes for leaving you hungry (and often hangry!), which is never good.

I am obsessed with using almond flour as a base for recipes. Because it’s high in protein and healthy fat, it keeps your blood sugar far more stable than traditional flours. Blood sugar spikes and dips are one of the most unhealthy parts of eating sweet treats—they have a cascading negative impact on hormones. The cacao offers further metabolic and anti-inflammatory benefits, and just makes these taste REALLY good.

Enjoy, and tag me if you make it on Instagram (@lizmoody)!

    Just made these and they turned out incredible! The only change I made was coconut oil since I didn’t have avocado oil. They have that soft brownie consistency with crispy edges. Mine spread quite a bit so keep that in mind when baking, I only could fit 6 on each baking sheet.

      Hi Alli, I’m so glad you liked them!! Great call on subbing in coconut oil. Isn’t the brownie consistency amazing?! xo, Liz
