I love brownies and gingerbread cookies, and for them I use Bob’s Red Mill products. Why? Bob’s Red Mill uses high-quality whole grains to satisfy all vegans, paleo and gluten-free friendly cooking and baking needs. 🙌🏻 For these brownies I used Bob’s Red Mill 100% stone-ground whole-wheat pastry flour. Recipe makes 6 large or 12 small two-bite brownies. Enjoy. #keepingupwiththedietitian *
