About
No Sugar No Maida Chocolate Brownie is a healthier, guilt-free version of the classic chocolate brownie, made without refined sugar or all-purpose flour (maida). Instead of sugar, it uses natural sweeteners like dates, jaggery, or stevia, and almond flour or oats flour is often used as a substitute for maida. The brownies are rich in cocoa, providing a deep chocolate flavor, while being gluten-free and low in processed ingredients. They’re a great option for those looking for a healthier dessert without compromising on taste. These brownies are fudgy, moist, and perfect for satisfying chocolate cravings in a more nutritious way.
