WORDS AND RECIPE : EVIE MORTON (www.evieandginger.com)
Raw, fudgey and just a BIT decadent, these are the ultimate brownies to have stashed in your freezer. Free from gluten, dairy, eggs, wheat and refined sugar, they are packed with figs, cacao and almond meal. Yoghurt is a luscious brownie topping but you could also eat these with a coconut ice cream or fresh berries while they’re still in season. Just try to stop at one!
