Fall deeper in love with the classic pairing of chocolate and cherries with these rich brownies. Studded with plump, juicy cherries, these treats aren’t only moist and mouthwatering, they’re better for you. Cherries bring a boost of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, while a “secret ingredient” replaces butter. Naturally butter-flavored coconut oil and sunflower butter combine for a deeply buttery taste, while an almond flour brownie mix (Yes, mix!) creates fudgy gluten-free brownies. Bake a batch in 30 minutes!
