INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8 x 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and the salt. Set aside.
- Melt the coconut oil and chocolate chips together in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently. Once melted and mixed together, turn off the heat and add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and collagen peptides. Stir until very well combined.
