For years I have been suffering from a severe peanut butter addiction, so these healthy salted caramel brownie with peanuts are the ultimate comfort food for me. The chille is that you can eat lots of them, guilt-free. This is because the healthy salted caramel brownies themselves contain no added sugars or butter. They are sweetened with applesauce and vanilla extract, among other ingredients, and thanks to the oat and almond flour, they are incredibly fluffy. That doesn't mean "regular" brownies are wrong, but if you eat as much as I do in a day, it's quite nice if you can snack somewhat healthily and nutritiously ;).

Healthy salted caramel brownies with peanut
What is salted caramel anyway? Salted caramel, that blissful flavor combination, originated in the 1970s. French pastry chef Henri Le Roux is hailed as a mastermind. His impulsive salt addition to caramel created the perfect sweet-salty explosion. Quickly loved worldwide, this delicacy can now be found on almost every menu and at every bakery. Personally, I always make a quick caramel from agave syrup (or honey) with a tablespoon of peanut butter. Super easy, nutritious and what's more, it gives you a special peanut flavor. If you add a little sea salt, you have perfect and quick salted caramel. These healthy salted caramel brownies with peanut will be your favorite snack or snack from now on!
