Equipment

  • muffin tin (6 holes)
  • Handheld mixer or whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 125 gr 80% dark chocolate (approx. 4½ cups)
  • 50 gr coconut oil (melted)(approx. ¼ cup)
  • 3 medium eggs
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 100-175 gr coconut sugar (or sub light brown sugar)(to taste; if you are using a lower % dark chocolate you can use less sugar)(approx. ¾-1¼ cup)
  • 90 gr almond flour (approx. 1 cup)
  • 30 gr cocoa powder (¼ cup)
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ½-1 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 360F/180C and line half a regular muffins tin with (tulip) muffins liners (so 6 muffins).
  • Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a double broiler and stir until emulsified. Now take it off the heat and let it cool off.
  • Whip eggs and coconut sugar together in a medium size mixing bowl with a handheld mixer or a whisk until they are pale and fluffy for about 5 minutes.
  • Slowly pour the cooled off chocolate mixture and add apple cider vinegar into the egg mixture. Mix it gently to keep it airy.
  • And sift the cocoa powder and the baking soda above the bowl with wet ingredients to avoid lumps. Now add the almond flour and salt to it and fold in all these ingredients with a wooden spatula. Now add half a cup of chocolate chips and gently fold those in. Make sure not to over mix the batter.
  • Divide the batter over the muffin tin by scooping it in the 6 muffins liners with a spoon (about 1 1/2 to 2 full tbsp) and top them with the remaining chocolate chips.
  • Slide the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake the brownie muffins for 13-15 minutes. The top should still be wobbly. The muffins will firm up more when they are cooling off.
