These fudgy Cottage Cheese Brownies, made with almond flour and simple ingredients, are an easy, naturally gluten-free dessert. Approximately 8 grams of protein per brownie!
Preheat oven to 350° F. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving a 1” overhang.
Add the butter, coconut oil and chocolate chips to a small saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring continuously until the chocolate has melted and is smooth; remove from the heat.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together for 1 minute until the mixture is light and frothy, then whisk in the melted chocolate.
Next, add the cottage cheese and milk to a food processor and pulse until smooth. NOTE: you may need to scrape down the sides once or twice – you want the mixture to be as smooth as possible.
Add the whipped cottage cheese, along with the vanilla, almond flour and salt to the bowl and gently fold together with a rubber spatula.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, then bake the brownies for 35-40 minutes. Let the brownies cool in the pan completely, then pull on the tables to remove them. Slice into 9 large brownies or 16 smaller brownies and enjoy!
