Prune Butter Brownies

Ingredients

1 spray as needed cooking spray (not olive oil)
3/4 cup rolled oats (ground into flour)
1/4 cup Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
1/4 cup Sugar
1/2 tsp. Baking soda
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/2 cup Prune puree
1 large Egg(s) (or flax egg substitute)
1 1/2 Tbsp. Maple syrup
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla extract
1/3 cup mini chips Semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350ºF and spray an 8×8″ baking dish with cooking spray.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: oat flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Whisk well and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine wet ingredients: pureed prunes, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk together.

Add dry ingredients to wet and stir until just combined.

Fold in mini chocolate chips.

Spread the batter in the prepared baking dish and bake for 17 – 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into brownies comes out clean.

Let cool before completely before cutting. Because these brownies are very moist and slightly sticky, they may require extra care when slicing them. Chilling them before cutting will make for neater brownies.

"The apples stewed with prunes are excellent, except for the prunes, I won't eat prunes myself. Well, there was one time when Hobb chopped them up with chestnuts and carrots and hid them in a hen. Never trust a cook, my lord. They'll prune you when you least expect it."
