How to Make Flax Seed Brownies
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Lightly grease a 13x9 inch glass baking dish with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flaxseed meal, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 cup buckwheat flour, and 1 cup chopped walnuts.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk 4 large eggs.
- In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), melt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Once the chocolate is about half melted, stir in ¼ cup honey, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Continue stirring until completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the melted chocolate from heat. Temper the eggs by slowly whisking about half of the warm chocolate mixture into the eggs. Then, pour the remaining chocolate mixture into the eggs and whisk until well combined.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon baking soda in 2 tablespoons of water.
- Pour the baking soda mixture over the batter and gently fold to combine.
- Immediately pour batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely before cutting and serving.
