This looks AMAZING... but it would be SO expensive to make! Nut butters, maple syrup, agave, avocados. I don't know about other countries, but if you were to make it here in Denmark it would be like extremely expensive to make.
Yup. In Malaysia too. These are all imported stuff so they're obviously damn expensive. I have them in my kitchen but I save for special recipes.. Well, I guess for this episode, now is the time to use them.
if i ever get all these ingredients i for sure will make these brownies. i really want to see how that frosting tastes with that avocado. its hard to believe it tastes good.
Yeah u probably can. You don't even have to put anything on top of the brownies. You can also definitely omit the white chocolate or even use something different.
Healthy seems rather subjective. It's far from low in calories, sugars, fats etc. Most likely even higher in fats because of the use of almond flour in stead of regular flour. Less transfats than a regular browny (no butter), higher in fibres, lower in cholesterol and less processed stuff (which doesn't automatically make something unhealthy btw), but still plenty of short carbohydrates and fat. Organic/vegan/gluten free isn't the answer. In some cases it might, but plenty of times it's not.
I agree - healthy is definitely relative! And, in my opinion, is an overused term in the food industry. Instead, we should be using the word "nutritious" because that word implies the food is nutrient-dense, i.e. it is full of naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, macronutrients etc. While this recipe for "healthy brownies" is high in sugar and fat, think about the fact that it is more nutrient-dense than a box of premade brownie mix. Look at the ingredients that were used: raw cacoa powder, bananas, avocados, nut butter, maple syrup, etc and compare that to the large list of processed ingredients on the back of a brownie box. Also, most of these ingredients are high in fiber which increases fullness. Even if you wanted to, you probably wouldn't be able to eat very many of these brownies in one sitting ;) Just a thought! :)
Calories are calories and sugars are sugars, processed or not. Sure this has more nutrients for the calories, but it's still more calories and sugar per portion than you'd want for something that isn't a full meal. Processed isn't the same as bad and added substances neither. Some of them are, but most of them are just technical terms for substances that are naturally found in a lot of foods. I'd even go out on a limb and say that the majority is actually good for you.
oh my gosh, YUMMMMMMMmmmmmm! *subscribed* I've tried an avocado mousse before - great for those of us who can't eat cream! Haven't thought of trying it as a frosting though. I'll definitely try this one :D
*Honest Review* Brownies: You can mainly taste bananas with a hint of chocolate, so if you don't like bananas, you wouldn't like these. They were quite squishy and chewy which I personally liked. Chocolate chips: Couldn't find cacao butter anywhere, so used normal white chocolate which paired really well with the brownies and disguised the banana taste momentarily. Frosting: The colour was quite off putting (did look like something found in the toilet haha), for the online recipe, there was a mistake in the recipe- it said 2 tbsps of lemon juice, but I remembered from the video that cashew butter was used, so used cashew butter in place of the lemon juice. As for taste, there was a mild avocado taste and was quite light in flavour, you could taste the cashew butter though. It was alright, but wouldn't make it again. Rating: 5/10
Cashew butter is mashed up cashew nuts. Lots of healthy oils and minerals in there. Your body needs those! Agreed, honey is still sugar, but also comes with a higher fructose content (which is a sugar that is a tiny bit healthier because it is absorbed more slowly by your body than glucose and therefore not causing that much of a sugar high that messes with insulin levels) and also comes with lots of valuable minerals.
It's such a shame that every 'healthy' baking recipe uses avocado and bananas - there are people (like myself) that are allergic to both of them (similar proteins causing the same reaction). I think I'm just going to stick to delicious real brownies, with real chocolate, and avoid the tummy cramps that avocado and banana bring on.

Which is cheaper between Norway and Denmark?
In Canada as well! I feel a lot of the times to make "healthy" desserts similar to brownies and such they will always be expensive.
same here in Brazil.
impo$$ible to make
the only cheap things in my country are avacados and cocoa powder and the rest soooo expensive 😢😢😢😢😢
The Roz Donal banter is golden :D
Donal looked very nervous and awkward xD very cute
ikr
His face was red
Because he was looking to hug her from the beginning and he finaly did haha and she's gorgeous !!
@@MarkSRiddle She is. He was horny.
i love watching your videos! you are always full of energy
Omg, she's stunning!! And Donal is just as hilarious and handsome as always. :D
and turning red when he's talking to her. What's going on?
+Xeon Cas 😂😂😂
+Xeon Cas I know right
She's atleast got what.. 3 doses of Botox in her but.. Sure "Stunning." ;)
mrdrebin123 Haha- I could get 100 doses of botox and still look like crap. Lol! She is stunning either way! :)
They look so good!!! And healthy - even better!
Thank you Donal you are a star

Those are some expensive ass brownies.
I can tell by eye contact and body language that this guy finds her attractive. Who wouldn't? She's gorgeous!
Watched you on Asia Food Channel. That was such a pleasant surprise! Congrats on your success, Donal.
Too funny with the toilet comment. LOL. These brownies look delicious! Already printed the recipe and subscribed to Roz's channel. 😍 Thanks guys.
these brownies look amazing donal!!! great video, love from australia!!! xx
This is my dream recipe!
Could use you use maple syrup/date syrup instead for the frosting? Also could you make without adding the 'White chocolate chips' mixture?
Yeah u probably can. You don't even have to put anything on top of the brownies. You can also definitely omit the white chocolate or even use something different.
at the starting when she makes the chooclate. Can we use peanut butter
Looks AMAZING. Wish I could eat every bit!
Yay it looks so good!!! Also I am so excited for Food Network Star Kids!
Making these. Good godliness
whoop totally in love with her now

May I just point out that this looks like a vegan recipe xD Perfect!
didn't they put honey in it? I think I heard something about honey
Yeah, but you could easily substitute that for agave :D
+Elisabeth Asbæk I use golden syrup to sub honey in everything lol
Most of roz's recipes are vegan friendly :-). Love her Instagram (@rozpurcell)
Not all vegan recipes are healthy, but all healthy recipes are vegan :)
does it annoy anybody else that she put the dates in one bowl just dump them into another bowl and then dumped into the food processor
wow i made this and i am making this again. AHHH amazinggggg
thanks for sharing that. Will try this recipe now.
:D
Awesome!!
Does she come with the recipe?
oh my gosh, YUMMMMMMMmmmmmm! *subscribed* I've tried an avocado mousse before - great for those of us who can't eat cream! Haven't thought of trying it as a frosting though. I'll definitely try this one :D
loveeeeeee the recipe "Healthy" "Brownies"
dimples.. 😍😍😍
Hej Donal! Hur många kalorier innehåller denna godhet? :)
That looked sinfully good.
These brownies look delicious and I really want to make them, but I hate bananas :( How can I substitute them?
I doubt you will actually be able to taste them in the recipe! Give it a go :)
That's what they always say but I always end up tasting them :p
The rest of the brownie looks fine, but the frosting's colour... yea Donal was right on that.
I lol'ed so hard on that..and the look on her face when he said that.. Hilarious!
So, that cacao butter is basically white chocolate without all that sugar they add to it? I ask because I've never even seen it... :P
lovely
Link for her not working
Great video :) haha so much fun to watch!

She still gorgeous.. gosh...
I'm allergic to nuts
Maxeeyy :(
Chocolate...healthy...SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY
She is beautiful. 😊
"no butter, sugar"
Well, you did have cashew butter and a shitload of honey in there... :/
***** true truuuue
Sugar is refined, honey not. Cashew butter is from plants, butter not... Big difference.
+Tem See There's no difference.

Morghena Thank you!!!
The words healthy and brownie do not belong together. LOL
Oxalates galore!

He didn't burn his tongue this time :P
