Ingredients:
1/4 cup Zen Basil Seeds
1 cup almond butter (smooth & runny works best)
2 eggs
1/3 cup maple syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Tbsp brewed espresso (or strong coffee)
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips of choice (plus more for topping)
Flaky salt, for finishing (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together all ingredients except the chocolate chips until smooth.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour batter into pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle extra chips if you want.
Bake 18–22 minutes (around 20 minutes for fudgy; less for gooier centers).
They’ll continue to set as they cool.Remove from oven, sprinkle with flaky salt if using.
Cool 30 minutes before slicing for that perfect fudgy texture.
