Almond flour brownie

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups (144g) almond flour

  • 3/4 cup (64g) unsweetened cocoa, Dutch-process or natural

  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 3 large eggs

    Procedure

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8" square baking container.
    2. Mix together the melted butter, sugar, salt, vanilla, cocoa, and eggs.
    3. Stir in almond flower and baking powder.
    4. Pour the batter to the greased baking container. 
    5. Bake in the oven for 33-38 minutes. Check by stabbing a toothpick into the middle. If the toothpick comes out without sticky/gluey stuff, then it is done.
    6. Wait till it completely cooled down before cutting it. After it is cooled in the fridge, it is much easier to cut into pieces without breaking or crumbling.

    I cooked some cat food to replace the canned food. Step 1. Make a "smell-good" mixture I bought them from the Chinese grocery store Ranch 99. The quantity listed below is the smallest package I can find. Chicken heart 1Lb Pork liver 1Lb Swai fish nugget 1Lb (This one has no bones) Salmon fish edges 1Lb (This one has some bones and I removed the bones) Basically equal weight of each item. I ground them with food processor, and put the mixture to 1Lb per zip bag. I stored zip bags in the freezer.    Step 2. Prepare chicken meat and make chicken meal When I bought chicken breasts with bones or chicken leg quarters, I cut bones, skin, and fat aside from meat.  I ground the chicken meat with food processor.

Then I used a blender to blend it into a complete mush (speed at "Hi...
