Featured Recipe: Gluten-Free Teff Flour Fudge Brownies

Teff Flour Fudge Brownies

With Teff Flour as the primary ingredient in this recipe, these chocolate brownies make a delicious gluten-free treat.

Teff leads all the grains – by a wide margin – in its calcium content, with a cup of cooked teff offering 123 mg, about the same amount of calcium as in a half-cup of cooked spinach. It’s also an excellent source of vitamin C, a nutrient not commonly found in grains.

Teff is also high in dietary fiber that is shown to benefit blood-sugar management, weight control, and colon health.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup teff flour
  • 1/3 cup brown rice flour
  • 1/3 cup raw cane sugar
  • 1/3 cup xylitol (honey)
  • 3 tbsp. liquid honey (omit and add 1/16 tsp of stevia)
  • ¼ cup + 2 tbsp cocoa
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • chocolate chips to sprinkle over top of batter

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350F degrees.
  2. Grease and flour an 8” x 8” glass pan.
  3. Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips.
  4. Pour mixture into your pan, and spread the batter evenly to the edges of the pan.
  5. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the batter.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the edges are brown.

TIP: Be careful not to over bake your brownies as they may become too dry.
