Gluten-Free Brownies
By Cheryl L. McClure

Picture
If you are a big fan of gluten-free foods, this one may appeal to you!

I am not a connoisseur of foods or cooking for that matter. I just try things out and if I like them... repeat! I saw this recipe and had to try it out. It was very simple to put together. I had just about everything that was required for the recipe so I went to work and BOOM! We had brownies!

My two cents: All I can say is that if I had gluten sensitivities, this recipe would pass! Especially since I like dark chocolate to begin with.

I have not purged the sugars and processed flour from my diet like so many dedicated, health conscious people. That being said, I might try some other brownie recipe, but I would definitely use my Young Living Peppermint Vitality™ essential oil! 

Here is your gluten-free brownie recipe:
All of this goes in the blender:
  • 15 oz. can of black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 Cup of Honey
  • 1/4 Cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1/3 Cup melted coconut oil
  • 2 drops Peppermint Vitality™ essential oil (by Young Living)
Whisk
  • 3 eggs in a large bowl
Add blended mixture into eggs and combine. 
​Pour into a greased 8" x 8" glass pan
Bake 350° for 25-30 minutes

Enjoy!!

Cheryl @ Pickle Creek Ranch

    It's probably pretty obvious I love nature and art. Nature and landscape photography is a part of everyday life at the ranch. There are some pieces available as works of art that I would like to share with you!

    I only recommend Young Living essential oils because I am confident in their purity and the quality of their essential oils and other products. I am not a doctor. The information I post on this website is for educational purposes only. Young Living supplements are designed to improve nutrition; they are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. However, scientific research has established a connection between nutrition and we all know better nutrition leads to better health.

    Please consult with the medical professional of your choice whether using essential oils or not. Remember that being proactive and taking responsibility for your health is in your own best interest. Dig in, research and make wise choices. I encourage you to see what others have done with essential oils and supplements by visiting Oil-Testimonials at http://www.oil-testimonials.com/.

    I hope that this website and blog will provide you with helpful information and resources to achieve your desired goals!!
    ​
    Feel free to contact me if you have questions or concerns as I am here to help and hopefully point you in the right direction!​
