Green Dream Brownies

This recipe was featured in Earth Diet online designer, Salvatore Fiteni's blog about spirulina.

Makes: 6 Brownies

Time: 15 minutes prep, 1 hour in freezer

Ingredients:
1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
1 cup walnuts
¼ cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons raw cacao powder
2 teaspoons (or more) spirulina powder
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon coconut oil (warmed to a liquid)

Directions:

1. Put oats and walnuts in food processor for about 30 seconds
2. Add all other ingredients except coconut oil and process until one consistency and color formed (probably another 30 seconds)
3. Add coconut oil and pulse until it’s all worked in. It may not look green, but that’s why I called “green dream”, it’s a normal brownie dreaming of the green. Now you understand.
4. Lay it all on a sheet and work it into a flat square shape. You can use a roller to flatten the top and push in the sides with your hands.
5. Put in freezer for 1 hour, cut into squares, and enjoy!
