**CLOSED** Tropical Traditions Brown Rice Syrup {Review & Giveaway)

Congrats to Dina at Just Another New Blog!

Tropical Traditions Certified Organic Brown Rice Syrup is a natural sweetener produced by steeping whole brown rice with a special enzyme preparation derived from “koji.” This process transforms the steamed grain into a smooth flavored, pleasantly sweet syrup. It is made without the use of any cane or beet sugars (no cane juice crystals), corn syrups, or other refined sweeteners of any kind. Organic Brown Rice Syrup is an excellent sweetener for all baked goods, in the preparation of sauces or marinades, and for general cooking purposes.

Chocolate Fudge Brownies
YIELD: 24 bars

1 cup butter
2 cups brown sugar
8 ¼ oz. bittersweet chocolate
2+ tbsp brown rice syrup
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cup coconut flour
4 tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
¼ cup heavy cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and dust an 11x8 pan with coconut oil and coco powder.

The Ingredients

 

Place butter, sugar, chocolate, and brown rice syrup in a medium sized pot and melt on low heat, stirring until everything is well blended and smooth. Sift in the coco powder. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Beat the eggs and vanilla extract together with an electric mixer until frothy.

Then on low speed, mix in cooled chocolate mixture and sugar. Alternatively add in the flour, heavy cream, baking powder, beating mixture after each addition.

(Consistency is thick.)

Pour mixture into the prepared pan and bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the top of the brownies is crisp and the edges begin to pull away from the pan. (The inside of the brownies will be dense and soft to the touch.)

Cool the brownies in the pan on a wire rack until cool. Dump the brownie out of the pan and cut into bars and serve. Frost with chocolate or vanilla frosting if desired. Enjoy!!

Blog entries about this recipe: How To Use Coconut Flour

The texture is different due to the coconut flour. The brownies were sweet but dense and soft. Bubbie didn't like it at all. BabyGirl said "Yes, I said!" after asking her a couple of times. Sissy ate 2 mouthful and stated "Mmm, this is good!" until she realized it wasn't a regular brownies. There's many other recipes that have the Brown Rice Syrup; that I'm sure the kids will really enjoy. Triple Coconut Oatmeal Cookies looks delicious! I'll have to try that!!!
