I hope everyone had a great long weekend! 
It always seems too short, but these brownies make it linger a little longer. 
There about as close to Paleo brownies, as I could figure…just for fun.
And they’re not your typical fudgy brownie. They are more like cake….but, who doesn’t like cake?

looks delicious but paleo doesn’t include peanuts
almond butter would be a good substitute though!
Good to know Angela!
The original recipe called for almond butter, but since it’s so expensive, I couldn’t see putting 1 1/2 cups of almond butter into brownies. It’s much better for spreading….on brownies. 
Looks delish! I love brownies! My weekend was fantastic! I had a 4 day weekend so I’m feeling REALLy refreshed at work this morning
It’s a nice feeling
Me too!
My husband took off Friday and the 4 day weekend was marvelous! 
So refreshed.
I am so not ready for the weekend to be over! Your brownies look fantastic, though. You always have the best gluten-free desserts!
Thanks Lauren!
How can you go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate?! I just made some dried fruit and nut “truffles” with the same flavor combination – I can’t get enough. On a somewhat related note, I’m making your zucchini brownies today
.
I know, right! Best combo ever. I can’t wait to see how the brownies turn out!
Oh my goodness. These just may have to make an appearance at my birthday dessert party on Thursday, everything is already chocolate and/or peanut butter!
Oh..this is such an easy to bake Brownie…and with PB..nom..nom! Love the presentation.
these look delicious + since i have a bunch of gluten-free friends, they’ll appreciate that they’re GF. forwarding this recipe on to them! =)
Mmm…very yummy looking! Definitely going to try these! Had a busy Sat and Sun, including a b-rthday girls tea for my daughter on Sunday, but yesterday I rested ALL DAY LONG, and loved it
Those looks so tasty! YUM! And glutenfree, one can like that!
I love simple this looks…my Dad (who’s gluten free) would LOOOOVE these! Thanks so much for sharing this!
okay I want to try these ASAP
I’m always looking for new brownie recipes to try and the fact that it has peanut butter in it is a bonus!
I cannot wait to make these for my littles!
These sound amazing!!

I just made these today and they are PHENOMENAL!!!!!! I did 1/2 the recipe and baked it in a loaf pan but only for about 15 minutes. They came out really fudgy and I love the taste of the peanut butter! Maybe next time I’ll leave them in for a little bit longer to get the cake-like consistency you were talking about! YUM YUM definitely love these though… they don’t make me feel so bad about eating brownies
Yay! I’m so happy to hear that Kristen! I bet having them more fudgy was great too. I’m always down for a fudgy chocolate treat!
