Did you ever tried tahini with chocolate? It may be a combination that sounds a bit strange at first, but they go very well together. The tahini is very creamy and has an intense flavor of toasted seeds, more specifically roasted sesame seeds, which combines well with the flavor of the dark chocolate and the flavor of the cacao.
These brownies are moist, soft, a little sticky and very decadent, exactly as brownies should be, although these are much healthier than the classic brownies that are full of butter, flour, and refined sugars. In this recipe the butter is replaced by the tahini and the oil, which can be coconut oil or sunflower oil, the sugar is replaced by coconut sugar, and finally, the large quantities of flour are changed a huge amount of cacao and just 1/4 cup of buckwheat flour, making this recipe gluten-free too. And finally, the chocolate we use is a very dark one (85% cacao) that intensifies the flavor of the brownie.
This recipe is gluten-free, easy to make, with only 8 ingredients, and has a vegan option; you can replace the eggs with a substitute, in the notes of the recipe I leave you the ones that I use when I make vegan recipes.
