    Upscaled Brownie PuddingThis ain't the Brownie Pudding from my childhood. I made too many changes to call it the same recipe anymore! With healthy ingredient substitutions, this is UPSCALED Brownie Pudding!

    Fresh Ground Flour, Coconut Oil, Organic Low Processed Sugar and Raw Cacao all replace the white flour, shortening, white sugar and cocoa the recipe originally came with. I'm happy to report it's even more tasty, just as simply to throw together and heck, I'd go as far as calling it a decent snack, not just dessert 😉

    (Says she who's eating it for mid morning snack while blogging...)

    I made the mistake of waiting til dessert to take pictures of dessert...should have done so way earlier as to have more natural light! I'm thankful for friends who didn't find it weird for me to suggest we do dinner, and to do it at their house, that I would bring all of dinner, and then I took pictures of everything we ate. Marius was working at their house, and being full time farmers, this time of year is super busy for them, hence why I said lets do you house and I'll bring the food.

    I don't get the science of this recipe. If you do, please explain it to me. Then again, maybe I don't want to know, because the magic of spreading batter in the pan, topping it with cacao/sugar, pouring boiling water overtop and ending up with a baked cake on top and pudding on the bottom? It's magic. Pure magic.

    Serve it with ice cream. Serve it for breakfast. Serve it to company. Make it for a family lunch. Just make it. Dress it up or eat it from the pan.

    Hi, I'm Kate! Thank you for joining us on this crazy journey! Our family lives on a 34 acre homestead in northern BC, Canda and get a kick out of things like raising our own meat, dairy and vegetables.

    We’re a homeschooling family who believes life is the best teacher but we do hit the books in winter. I’m so glad you’re here, I hope you stick around!
