These Fudgy Avocado Brownies with Avocado Frosting are an incredible gluten-free healthier brownie for when you want all the flavour without all the sin.
I wanted to experiment with avocado brownies because I saw they were apparently a thing. Since I was going for a healthier alternative to my mothers brownie recipe, I decided to swap the all-purpose flour for coconut flour and it actually worked super well. The chocolate frosting is magnificent too. So full of rich chocolate flavour – you would never guess it to be nearly sinless!
