Mmmm. These brownies. Over the top fudginess with a sweet and salty caramel sauce. Yes, yes, yes.

This is my kind of baked good. Paleo Salted Caramel Brownies. Decadent almost to the point of overkill. Not overly sweet, but definitely rich. These are not the same qualities I look for in a partner (well, not entirely). Oh, and to top it all off, they are of course, paleo.

SIGN. ME. UP.

I also know recipes are a hit when they make their way around the office. Cause sometimes you make something healthy, and everyone gets a little apprehensive. “Oh, it’s gluten-free,” they say, poorly attempting to hide their disappoint. This is the exact opposite way I react to finding out there’s a gluten-free treat in office, but similar to how I react when someone tells me there are beans in a dish. “Oh, beans. High in fibre. Yummy.” Because I know they’re good for you, but the texure–the freaking texure. Gross.

But these puppies? Not gross. The opposite. Magic. No, these were devoured. Obliterated. Thoroughly enjoyed. So of course I have to share the recipe. To make this Paleo Salted Caramel Brownie Recipe, you do have to make the Paleo Vegan Caramel Sauce first. You can make it in advance, or while the brownies are baking. The trick is to let it reduce and get as thick as possible. Let it coat the back of a spoon. As for the brownies, when you’re cutting them, wait for them to be completely cooled and then dip a knife into boiling water before cutting into it– this will help create nice clean lines.

This is meant to be eaten with a fork–it’s quite messy! (But in the most delicious way possible.)
