Pumpkin Swirl Brownies (Paleo, Nut free)

It’s been a busy couple of weeks over here, but I wanted to make sure I popped in to let you know about these pumpkin swirl brownies, which I shared as a guest post over on Empowered Sustenance. They’re paleo, nut free, and super fudgy–perfect for Halloween or anytime.

Tiger nut flour is the secret ingredient in these super fudgy paleo tiger nut brownies! And since tiger nuts are actually tubers, they’re great for people with nut allergies.

Have you heard of tiger nuts? They’re a new-to-me ingredient that I’m really excited to share with you. Here are three fun facts about tiger nuts:
1. They are not nuts! Tiger nuts are actually tubers, which means they’re a great snack option for anyone, even people with nut allergies.
2. Tiger nuts are a truly paleo food–scientists believe that they formed a large part of the diet of hominims and other early humans. They’ve also been found in Egyptian tombs from over 6,000 years ago. (I found this info on Wikipedia.)
3. Tiger nut flour makes delicious brownies!

Bonus fact: tiger nuts are widely cultivated in Spain, where they’re used to make a special kind of horchata. Grab the recipe here!
The folks at Tiger Nuts USA sell peeled and unpeeled tiger nuts as well as tiger nut flour. I haven’t used the unpeeled tiger nuts yet, but I’m planning to use them to make tiger nut milk. (That has to be the coolest name for a kind of dairy-free milk, right? Why drink almond milk when you could drink TIGER NUT MILK??) Read More…
