BEETROOT CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

This brownie recipe is a rich, chocolatey and oh so delicious. Adding beetroot gives the brownie an earthy depth of flavour. Beetroots are an excellent source of folic acid and a very good source of fibre, manganese and potassium. You may notice that I have chosen to use white sugar in this recipe, that's because in short, sugar is sugar. Sugar substitutes are not always the healthier option and after all these are a treat to relish and enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

  • 250g dark chocolate 70% 

  • 3 medium organic eggs

  • 150g spelt/wholewheat flour

  • 250g unsalted butter

  • 200g sugar

  • 250g cooked grated beetroot

  1. Roughly chop the butter and chocolate and place in a heat proof bowl. Sit over a pan of barely simmering water (a bain marie) and allow the chocolate/butter to melt,

  2. In another bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy. Add the sugar and whisk well.
