Fluffier than the 3-ingredient flax bread, but still beautifully rustic and satisfying. Free from: 🌿 Gluten 🌿 Grains (no rice, corn, or starches) 🌿 Nuts 🌿 Yeast 🌿 Dairy 🌿 Eggs 🌿

Black Forest Brownie Cake 🍒🤍🍫

The original recipe for this chocolate cherry brownie cake is by Radhi Devlukia-Shetty in her cookbook: “JoyFULL” (but we made a few tweaks based on ingredient availability at a friend’s house).

So I thought it would be fun to try her brownie cake recipe - It’s gluten free, egg free, dairy free, refined sugar free & vegan. And instead of stacking & “icing
