Chocolate Pecan Brownie Cupcakes
Aug 01, 2020
These brownie cupcakes are actually healthier than most other baked sweets. It fits perfectly into a whole food plant-based lifestyle. The cocoa adds a big punch of flavonoids, which have an incredible amount of health benefits such as lowering inflammation and blood pressure and improved cholesterol levels. That said I don't want you to eat brownies all day, but as a treat here and there why not. :)

5 tbsp & 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda

3. In a second bowl add all dry ingredients.
4. Now add the wet ingredients to dry ingredients and combine. Stir just until all ingredients are incorporated.
