Scale

- 1/2 cup Gluten Free flour blend
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of salt

- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup

Homemade Raspberry Jam
- 1 pint of fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Homemade Raspberry Jam:
- Put fresh raspberries into a medium sized sauce pan with sugar and lemon juice. Turn on medium heat and crush the raspberries with a spatula.
- Let simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring constantly until a jam like consistency is reached. When the jam can coat the back of the spoon, without sliding off, it is ready. Set aside and let cool for 20-30 minutes.
- Transfer to a mason jar.
Brownies:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease an 8×8 baking pan
- In a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup with the unsweetened cocoa powder
- Grab a large bowl and mix together all the dry ingredients (GF flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt)
- Add the maple syrup and unsweetened cocoa powder mixture to the large bowl. Then add egg, oil, vanilla, and apple sauce
- Mix well and pour into the greased 8×8 baking pan. Smooth out and dollop a few tablespoons of the homemade jam into different places in the pan. Take a small knife or toothpick and swirl the raspberry jam around in the batter semi evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 17-20 minutes. Check with a toothpick to see if it comes out clean. Set on a wire cooling rack for 5 minutes then enjoy!
