Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your mini muffin pan with nonstick spray or coconut oil.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the creamy almond butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and melted coconut oil until thick and glossy.
  3. Gradually incorporate the cocoa powder in ¼ cup increments, whisking until shiny and smooth. Add in vanilla extract, salt, and flax eggs, mixing until fully incorporated.
  4. Gently fold in the gluten-free oat flour until the batter reaches a soft, dough-like consistency.
  5. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Baking
  1. Using a tablespoon, drop just over a tablespoon of batter into each muffin cup, shaking the pan gently to even out the batter.
  2. Bake for 12-16 minutes, checking for doneness at the 12-minute mark.
  3. Allow to cool in the pan for an hour, then release the brownie bites onto a cooling rack.

Notes

Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for the best mixing. Avoid overmixing the batter. Use a toothpick to check for doneness.
