One of the most popular cannabis edibles of all time, is the good ol' brownie. I recreated a healthier version and I promise you won't miss the refined sugar or flour. The chocolate 🍫 masks the weed flavour nicely, if this is of concern to you. Best of all, they are easy to make and store. I hope you love these as much as I do.

Ingredients
2 tbsp ground flaxseed
6 tbsp brewed coffee or water
2 cups vegan chocolate chips
¾ cup coconut sugar
6 tbsp cannabutter (softened)
1 cup walnuts (chopped)
¼ cup raw cacao powder
¾ cup + 2 tbsp 1:1 gluten-free flour
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp baking powder
Directions
Preheat oven to 350° and grease your pan.
*You can use some cannabutter. 😉Prepare your flax egg by combining ground flaxseed with your brewed coffee. Let it sit for approx. 10 minutes, until it becomes gel-like.
*I use my leftover coffee from the morning when I make these.Melt 1 cup of chocolate chips on the stove, using a double boiler method. Set aside.
In a large bowl, add cannabutter and coconut sugar. Whisk until completely combined. Then add the flax egg, melted chocolate, and vanilla extract and whisk well.
In a separate bowl, gently mix flour, baking powder, cacao powder, and salt together.
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.
Add remaining cup of chocolate chips and chopped walnuts to batter and fold in.
Transfer brownie batter into greased pan.
Bake anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes.
*Gluten-free flour takes some getting used to. If you want a fudgier brownie only bake for 20 minutes. You want them slightly soft in the middle as they will harden a bit and turn fudgey as they cool.
*If you want more of a cake-like brownie, I would bake these for at least 30 minutes, making sure they are not soft in the middle.Remove brownies from the oven and let cool completely before slicing. Otherwise, they will crumble a bit.
Recipe Note
*You will get approx. 12 medium-sized brownies or 20 small brownies. It really depends on how elevated you want to feel.
*Store these in the refrigerator.
*You can also wrap these in parchment paper and store in your freezer for up to 6 months.
