Making Gluten-free Healthy Avocado Brownies
Sounds weird, right? But we assure you that it will taste nothing like avocado. In this recipe, the butter is being replaced by avocados and apple sauce to make it a healthy brownie. Did you know, half a cup of butter equals 813 calories, while half a cup of avocados only equals 184 calories? So switching the butter with avocado will not only make it lighter but also add those healthy fats into our diets.
