Paleo Brownies

INGREDIENTS
2 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla
6 tbs oil (I usually use 3 tbs apple sauce and 3 tbs coconut cream/oil)
1/2 cup (or to taste) of maple syrup/honey
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 cup arrowroot
Chopped nuts
Chopped up bits of unsweetened cooking chocolate


PROCESS
1. Beat egg whites till they form stiff peaks in a bowl (you can skip this and just use whole eggs if you're happy with denser brownies)
2. In another bowl beat egg yokes and then add and mix in all the rest
of the ingredients
3. Fold in egg whites
4. Bake at 180 C for about 30 mins
