Giada de Laurentiis has done it again. A mastermind in creating tasty recipes sans gluten (we can’t get enough of her gluten-free Chicken Milanese or chocolate chip banana bread), the Italian chef, cookbook author, and Food Network personality is now bringing us this Gluten-Free Skillet Brownie recipe. It bakes brownies as decadent as the traditional chocolatey snacks, but without refined sugar and all-purpose flour. The result? A sweet treat you can sink your teeth into without any worry (other than you might eat the entire batch in one sitting).

The recipe swaps traditional flour for almond flour — an ingredient that not only bakes a gluten-free brownie, but also imparts more delicious flavor and texture. For sweetness, Giada uses

coconut sugar

One technique Giada swears by for the best bake: Using room-temperature eggs (there are two whole and one yolk in this recipe). They’ll incorporate better with the other ingredients. 

And let’s face it — by baking the brownies in a nonstick ovenproof skillet and cutting the finished product into wedges, it’ll result in no more fighting over who gets a crispy and chewy edge piece.
