Who doesn’t love brownies? I don’t understand how anyone can’t find them delicious. And no one should have to miss out on all the chocolatey goodness which is why we’re sharing this gluten free brownie recipe!
Gluten is a protein typically found in wheat, rye and barley, therefore it’s in almost all types of flour, thus it’s in almost all cakes, brownies and biscuits. People who suffer from coeliac disease can’t eat gluten because their body’s immune system attacks the protein, causing some severe side effects. The only way to treat coeliac disease is with a gluten free diet for life – but that doesn’t mean you can’t eat delicious brownies!
