These raw brownies are absolutely delicious. This is a super easy recipe that you can make and be ready to eat in 15 minutes. I remember making cooked brownies and hating to have to wait for 50 minutes to let it cool. Sometimes I didn’t wait and they fell apart trying to get them out of the pan. With this recipe you can eat them right away! Make a double batch! You wont’ be sorry 🙂
- 1 ½ cups raw walnuts, unsoaked
- Dash salt
- 10 pitted medjool dates, unsoaked
- ⅓ cup unsweetened raw cocoa powder or carob powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons water (for a moister brownie, optional)
- ¼ cup chopped dried cherries (optional)
- Chop ¼ cup of the walnuts and set aside.
- Place the remaining walnuts and salt in a food processor fitted with the S blade and process until finely ground.
- Add the dates and process until mixture sticks together.
- Add the cocoa powder and optional vanilla and process until evenly distributed.
- Add the water, if using, and process briefly.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Add the reserved chopped walnuts and dried cherries, if desired, and mix well using your hands. Pack the mixture firmly into a square container.
- Stored in a sealed container, Brownies will keep for up to one week in the refrigerator or one month in the freezer.

What are alternatives for those with nut allergies?
Nuts can be a problem. You can use seeds such as sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds. Also try using buckwheat. I have been experimenting with different things myself. Will post a recipe once I get one I really like.
Hi Ama,
One variation on this recipe is that I used cashes vice walnuts.

They were very tasty! I’ll have to give that a try. Thanks for sharing.
