We bet you won’t be able to eat just one – these dairy-free Paleo Caramel Brownies will have you reaching for more!

Bite into rich dark chocolate brownies with sweet, salted caramel on top! Made soft and chewy, this dessert can be whipped up in minutes. Best part is, they’re made with guilt-free ingredients that’ll satisfy your sweet tooth and sneak in extra nutrients.

To keep things gluten-free, a mixture of almond flour and tapioca flour replace traditional all-purpose flour. This helps eliminate unnecessary grains while also adding extra fluff to the batter. Added coconut oil provides a bit of moisture and is also a great source of healthy fats.

Vanilla, dark chocolate, and coconut sugar are used as natural sweeteners to amp up the sweet factor. As a bonus, this recipe calls for a Paleo “caramel” sauce on top. You can whip up your own ahead of time (try using this easy caramel recipe here!) or look for other Paleo-approved versions at your local health food store.

To get started, combine the wet and dry ingredients into a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to blend everything together and set aside. Next, line your baking pan with parchment paper and gently pour the batter into the pan in an even layer. Tip: Parchment paper will help reduce clean up time and make it easier to lift the brownies from the pan when finished.

Then, bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until an inserted fork runs clean from the center. Let the brownies cool at least 10 minutes before gently lifting from the baking pan. Note: Brownies will be super soft on the inside, so be careful not to lift them any sooner!

When cooling is complete, slice them into eight equal-sized bars and drizzle the caramel sauce on top. Sprinkle with sea salt and enjoy as is, or pair it alongside coconut milk ice cream for a decadent brownie sundae.
