Gluten-Free Brownies
Who says you can't have brownies on a gluten-free diet? These gluten-free brownies are just as rich and chocolatey as the real thing. Here's what you'll need:

- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a large bowl, beat the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares and serving.
