Beetroot is well known as a libido booster for women, a natural viagra for men and commonly known to boost performance in athletes.  Enjoy !

Prep Time 10 mins     Cook Time  45 mins    Total Time    55 mins
 
Servings
: 9 large brownies

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons flax seed meal
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • 4 cup small beets roasted and chopped (about 1-¼ pureed)
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1-1/4 cup full fat coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup raw cacao powder
  • ¼ cup tapioca starch*
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar  ---> Note I prefer to use honey and add 1/3 - 1/2 cup honey instead.
  • 1-¼ cups almond meal/flour
  • 1-½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, and lightly oil an 8” x 8” baking dish.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together the water and flax meal (this process makes two vegan flax “eggs”). Allow it to sit and thicken for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add the chopped roasted beets to a blender. Blend for a few seconds to chop/puree the beets.
  4. Add the flax mixture (“eggs”) and the remaining ingredients to the blender. Blend very well until completely smooth.
  5. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth it evenly. Place on the center wrack of the oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes.
  6. Allow brownies to cool 30 minutes before slicing into them. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Recipe Notes

*You can replace tapioca starch with corn starch.
