Robin says
Can i sub coconut or whole wheat flour? Out of almond flour….
Sarah Nevins says
Hi Robin! Not sure about wheat flour but you could try using 1 tablespoon coconut flour (you would need less coconut because it’s a much more absorbent flour than almond).

Christina says
I would love to try this recipe! Can I sub the egg yolk for flax?
Sarah says
Hi Christina! I can’t say for sure that it would work since I haven’t tried it that way, but I do think a flax would work fine in place of the yolk. If you try it that way let me know how it goes!
Lisa says
Can’t wait to try this recipe! If I use maple syrup or honey, what amount should I use in place of the 10-20 drops of liquid stevia?
Sarah says
1 tablespoon 🙂 I hope you like it as much as we do!
Cassie says
Sometimes I have a friend when cooking, so I have to make two servings as well! But this is a great dessert to share with my sister or BFF! And it’s healthy too!
Sarah says
I love cooking with friends – so much fun and it keeps me from eating too much 😀
Bethany @ Athletic Avocado says
Mmmmmm these brownies look super fudgey and chocolatey! I also love singe serving recipes, so much less to clean up 😉
Sarah says
Another thing to love about single serve snacks!
