I developed quite a liking for brownie brittle before starting the 21 Day Fix and was really craving it today. I decided to run by the grocery to pick up supplies and try to make my own clean, Fix-approved version. This is what I came up with, and it was great! You also can’t beat 70 calories per serving!
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cups old-fashioned oats (make sure the container says gluten-free)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cups baking stevia or 3 tablespoons stevia
- 2 tablespoons unsweeted cocoa powder
- 1/4 cups unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon caramel extract
- 1 tablespoon almond milk
- 2 egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 tablespoon miniature chocolate chips
21 Day Fix Containers (per single serving):
- 1/2 yellow (oats)
- All other ingredients less than 1/4 of a container
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees
- Place parchment paper on a baking sheet
- Put all ingredients except for salt and chocolate chips in blender (oats, baking powder, stevia, cocoa powder, applesauce, vanilla, caramel extract, almond milk, egg whites, and paprika)
- Blend ingredients until fully mixed with no large oat pieces (will be very runny)
- Pour batter into middle of prepared baking sheet
- Use a spoon or spatula to spread batter as thin as possible
- Sprinkle top of batter with salt and chocolate chips
- Bake for 20 minutes
- Remove from oven and pick up paper by corners transferring baked brittle to countertop to cool
- After cooling for 2-5 minutes, the brittle should be cool enough to touch and easy to tear into bite-size pieces; you will notice that at this point the brittle is a soft, chewy consistency (because of the nature of the oat/applesauce base, the brittle will not get super crunchy)
- Optional: While you are tearing your brittle into pieces, increase your oven temperature to 400 degrees
- Optional: Place the parchment paper back onto the baking sheet and spread brittle pieces evenly on top
- Optional: Continue baking for 5-10 minute intervals checking the “crunchiness” of the brittle until it is the consistency you desire; the edges will begin to curl as the brittle hardens
