Author Notes
These brownies are super easy to make and are a great healthy sweet treat to have on hand.
The best part is, that these are gluten-free, vegan, raw and no artificial sweeteners, so completely guilt free!
And the fun part is that you can really play around with all kinds of nuts and seeds instead of the hazelnuts and cashews. —Holly Dyson
