Avocado brownies are brownies made without butter. The butter is replaced with the healthier plant-based fat from avocado. These brownies are wonderfully moist, delicate and fudgy; they do not become firm like traditional brownies made with butter and chocolate.

Oat pancakes for breakfast or dessert. Made without flour or refined sugar. Instead of flour, the batter uses finely ground oats, which absorb moisture very well, making the pancakes slightly drier in texture. What makes them truly delicious are the toppings
