  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder sifted
  • ⅔ cup almond flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips or chunks plus extra for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, stir the pumpkin purée until smooth.
  • Add in the almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla, whisking until well combined.
  • Mix in the cocoa powder, almond flour, and salt until you have a smooth batter.
  • Gently fold through the chocolate chips.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth out the top. Sprinkle extra chocolate on top if desired.
