Clean Eating Avocado Brownies

  

Hopefully these measurements are right; I had two overripe avocados to use up and half-heartedly began tossing ingredients into a bowl for a healthy brownie recipe, thinking it was hardly likely to result in anything special.

Whoa.

I was WRONG.  These are incredible, especially when using my own sunflower seed butter (I can't brag too much about my sunflower seed butter...it was a harder endeavor than I thought).  The sunflower seed butter was a good addition though, and helped maintain the ideal brownie texture.
