Ingredients
- 4 egg whites: Egg whites are an excellent source of protein and help give the brownie its light texture. They add structure to the brownie without adding fat.
- 3 egg yolks: Egg yolks add moisture and richness to the brownie, contributing to its dense, flavorful texture.
- 4 dates: Dates are a natural sweetener that replaces refined sugar, offering sweetness and a touch of flavor. They are also rich in fiber and nutrients.
- 200 g of sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate: Choose unsweetened semisweet chocolate to keep the recipe healthy but still rich in flavor. Chocolate is the main ingredient that gives brownies their distinctive flavor.
- 15 g of collagen (of your preference): Collagen helps improve the texture of the brownie and also offers additional benefits for skin and joint health.
- 10 tablespoons gluten-free oatmeal Oat flour is a great alternative to wheat flour, especially for those with gluten intolerance. It adds fiber and nutrients to the brownie.
- 2 tablespoons of sugar-free cocoa powder: Cocoa powder intensifies the chocolate flavor and adds a touch of richness to the brownie. Choosing sugar-free cocoa keeps the recipe within the healthy parameters.
- 1 teaspoon baking powder: Baking powder is essential to help the brownie rise and acquire a light and fluffy texture.
How to Prepare
- Prepare the Chocolate:
- Melt the semisweet chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave, dividing it into two parts. Set one part aside to add later.
- Beat the Eggs and Dates:
- In a mixer, beat the egg whites and yolks together with the dates until you get a smooth cream. The dates must be processed well so that they are completely incorporated into the mixture.
- Add Cocoa:
- Stir the cocoa powder into the egg and date mixture until completely incorporated. This adds a deep chocolate flavor to the brownie.
- Incorporate the Melted Chocolate:
- Add half of the melted chocolate to the cream and mix well so that the chocolate is evenly distributed.
- Add the Dry Ingredients:
- Mix the oat flour, collagen, and baking powder into the batter. Stir until all the dry ingredients are well incorporated into the mixture.
- Prepare the Form:
- Line a rectangular pan with parchment paper. This makes it easier to remove the brownie after baking and prevents it from sticking to the pan.
- Pouring the Batter:
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula to ensure the brownie bakes evenly.
- Add the Remaining Chocolate:
- Pour the remaining half of the melted chocolate over the batter and use a spatula or toothpick to create a marbled effect if desired. This adds an extra layer of flavor and a beautiful appearance to the brownie.
- To roast:
- Bake the brownie in a preheated oven at 180ºC for about 30 minutes. The time may vary slightly depending on your oven, so check if the brownie is cooked by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the brownie is ready.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the brownie to cool in the pan before cutting into pieces. This helps ensure that the brownie maintains its shape and texture.
Tips for a Perfect Fit Brownie
- Alternative Sweeteners: If you prefer, you can replace the dates with other natural sweeteners, such as honey or agave syrup. Adjust the amount according to your taste.
- Add Nuts or Chestnuts: For a crunchy touch, you can add walnuts or cashews to the brownie batter. This also adds nutrients and texture.
- Storage: Store the brownie in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator to extend its shelf life.
