These insanely fudgy raspberry brownies are easy to whip up and just happen to be good for you! Rich chocolate paleo and vegan brownie batter is baked with an easy raspberry sauce for the ultimate fruit and chocolate combo. They’re gluten-free, dairy-free, and completely addicting!
Get ready for the ultimate chocolate weekend, in honor of Valentine’s Day next week! And get excited – both recipes are Paleo + Vegan, so they’re perfect for sharing with just about anyone 🙂
We’re starting today with my new favorite brownies – these super fudgy, sweet, rich, chocolatey, raspberry ones!
I tweaked my original paleo and vegan brownies a bit to accommodate lots of raspberry yumminess and they did not disappoint one bit!
We start by making the raspberry sauce itself. This way it has a chance to cool and thicken while we prepare the brownie batter.
The sauce is super easy – raspberries (frozen is fine) plus maple syrup and some tapioca to thicken it. It doesn’t cook for long and it comes out sooo yummy – just try not to eat all of it before you make the brownie batter!
Although, you’re actually only using half of it for the brownies themselves – the rest you save for topping while serving. So, I guess technically speaking we can all eat up to half of the raspberry sauce and still save the brownies. Just saying.
But now onto the brownies! Although they do contain a list of ingredients, they’re also quite easy to prep. The wet ingredients are mixed on the stovetop to get everything nice and melty, and then the dry ingredients are mixed in at the end.
You will need 2 “flax eggs” for this one since it’s vegan, and I honestly feel they lend to the really fudgy gooey texture, so I recommend using them instead of eggs! If you really want to use eggs, 1 whole and 1 yolk should do it.
Anyway, the flax eggs are easy to make – 2 Tbsp flaxseed (ground) mixed with 5 Tbsp water works for me. You’ll allow it to sit for about 10 mins while you prepare the rest of the batter. Easy peasy!
Seriously, that sauce is so good! In the brownie pan, you’ll layer the brownie batter with 1/2 the raspberry sauce, and then sort of swirl it in to incorporate. This doesn’t have to look pretty, but it will in the end anyway!
After baking, I sprinkled some chopped dark chocolate over the top, which melts and makes these even more chocolatey and rich. The brownies will need to cool completely in order to get that nice fudgy texture that’s easy to cut into pieces. I typically chill mine to speed up the cooling!
If you’re really going for that WOW factor, make a brownie sundae with a scoop of coconut vanilla ice cream and the rest of that raspberry sauce. Seriously, this combo is even better than you’re imagining! I hope you’re ready for chocolate bliss because it’s absolutely about to happen in your house – let’s go!

Ingredients
Raspberry sauce:
- 2 cups frozen or fresh raspberries
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp tapioca flour
- 1 Tbsp water
Brownies:
- 2 Flax Eggs 2 Tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 5 Tbsp water, allowed to sit for 10 mins
- 2/3 cup blanched almond flour
- 1/3 cup raw cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2/3 cup coconut sugar or maple sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 3 oz baking chocolate unsweetened, cut into pieces
- 1/3 cup almond butter creamy
- 1/4 cup coconut oil refined
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 oz dark chocolate chopped*
Instructions
Make the Raspberry Sauce first:
-
Place raspberries and maple syrup in a medium saucepan and set heat to medium. Bring to a boil, stirring to avoid burning.
-
Once boiling, mix together tapioca and water and stir into raspberry mixture. Continue to cook and stir 3-5 more minutes until thick and syrupy, then remove from heat to cool.
Prepare the Brownie Batter:
-
Prepare the flax eggs as described above. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line an 8 x 8 baking pan with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, cacao powder, coconut sugar, baking soda and sea salt. Set aside.
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the chocolate over very low heat, stirring constantly. Add the almond butter and stir to combine, then remove from heat. Stir in the coconut oil, maple syrup, flax eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir well until a thick brownie batter forms. Transfer batter to the prepared baking pan and spread evenly (it will be thick. Top with half of the raspberry sauce and swirl in with a knife.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-27 minutes until set in the center. After removing from oven, immediately sprinkle chopped chocolate over the top. Once it melts, you can gently swirl with a toothpick (optional). Allow to cool to room temp before cutting into squares. Chilling in the fridge or freezer will bring out a fudge texture and make them easier to cut as well. Enjoy!

Let me prefix this with saying I’m not a ‘baker’ and this was the first think I baked (dessert wise anyway) in 2019. I was super diligent about measuring things out (I’ve been told this is important with baking, and have ignored this advice to my own detriment).
The whole thing was blissfully simple – I managed not to burn anything; ate half of the raspberry sauce (top tip) and remained on a sugar high for the rest of the day (I’m not usually a dessert person either, so I have no self control when the craving hit, and the aftermath is usually not good).
The result was a much more gooey brownie than I would expect (probably down to my rubbish baking skills) but I think some of it might be to do with the measuring by cups and tablespoons? I live in the UK so these may differ from US quantities (so grams/oz/ml whatever would be handy to make sure clueless bakers like me get it less wrong).
I digress. So, brownies are super gooey. I chucked half of it out (even after baking it for an extra 10 minutes) because I just couldn’t get it out in a solid-ish shape. The rest I put in the fridge (maybe the coconut oil will harden it up??) AND IT WORKED. They’re all firmed up now, and still delicious (but still super gooey).
Think I’ll try it again soon, but probably with more of a dry ratio to wet ratio (and hopefully without polishing off half the raspberry sauce. My jeans can’t take it)

Available are essays crafted by creators. Approximately 75% of the Arctic region is jointly owned by Canada and Russia, making Canada a strong candidate for Arctic collaboration. Recent shifts in Canada’s foreign policy reflect a newfound willingness to engage with Russia. However, both Canada and the United States share parallel challenges, lacking essential ice-breaking equipment, maritime infrastructure, and response capabilities vital for navigating the complexities of the Arctic. Just as the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal serve as crucial transportation routes Write my capstone project , the Northwest Passage could play a similar role. Yet, current resources, including the icebreaker fleet, marine infrastructure, and response abilities, fall short in addressing melting sea ice and the projected surge in Arctic business and population. To ensure secure and efficient Arctic maritime shipping, increased investment in response assets, international policies, and collaborative search and rescue facilities becomes imperative.
