This brownie is gluten free and boasts 6g fiber (about 25% of your daily recommended goal) and 6g of plant-powered protein.
Our no-bake treats taste ultra decadent, yet are free of added sugar thanks to naturally sweet dates.

Instructions

- Turn mixture out into prepared baking pan. Use your fingers or the back of a measuring cup to firmly press into pan, working into all edges until smooth. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
