Almond Flour Brownies (GF)

What is your favorite dessert? My favorite dessert is Brownies. I don't know anyone who doesn't like brownies. There are tons of recipes online for brownies and this recipe is what my family loves. I am not a big baker. I used to buy ready to bake brownie packets for a long time because baking was intimidating. One day when I was craving for brownies and we didn't have any store bough packet so we had to make it from scratch. We used as many healthier choices as possible and to our surprise, we liked our recipe better than store bought pre-made packets. We use almond flour and brown sugar or coconut sugar for healthier option. Honestly, we like almond flour brownies better than regular flour because it is softer and has more chocolate flavor.
