Blood Type O Brownie Recipe (TYPE O)

Ingredients:

  • ⅔ cup brown rice flour
  • ⅓ cup millet flour
  • ⅓ cup arrowroot starch
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 oz 100% dark chocolate, shaved
  • ¼ cup warm water
  • 3 eggs
  • ¼ cup applesauce** (NS substitute 1/2 smashed banana)
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened*
  • ½ cup agave
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8”x8” baking dish with non-stick spray (light olive oil or canola oil) and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients: brown rice flour, millet flour, arrowroot starch, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, applesauce, butter, and agave. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir to combine.
  4. Melt chocolate over a double boiler. If you do not have a double boiler, set a glass bowl on top of a small saucepan filled ⅓ of the way with water (water should not be touching the bowl). Bring the water to a boil and add shaved chocolate. Let melt and remove from heat. Add chocolate and warm water to batter, stirring to combine.
  5. Pour into the greased baking dish, and bake for 30-35 minutes or until firm to the touch and a cake tester comes out clean.
  6. Remove brownies from the oven, and turn off the heat. Pour chocolate chips over the top of the brownies, and place back into the oven for 2-3 minutes. Use an offset spatula to spread melted chips evenly across the top of the brownies.
  7. Let cool for 10 minutes. Slice and serve warm.
