Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies (Gluten Free)

Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies (Gluten Free)

Ingredients for the Brownies:
1.5 cups nut butter of any kind (I've tried all crunch peanut butter and an almond butter and half crunchy peanut butter mix. They were both awesome!)
2 large eggs
1 to 1.25 cups pure maple syrup (depending on taste)
1t vanilla extract
1/2 cup pure unsweetened cocoa powder (dark cocoa if you have it, otherwise regular is fine)
1/4 t salt
1t baking soda

Ingredients for the Peanut Butter Filling:
3/4 cup melted peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven - 325 farenheit. 
2. Prepare baking dish - Line a 9x13 glass baking dish with wax paper leaving approximately a 2 inch overhang (to aid in removing the brownies from the pan after baking). Spray wax paper with canola oil.
3. Prepare brownies - Beat nut butters in an electric mixer until smooth and slightly whipped. (I recommend starting on medium until it's smooth, then raising it to high to whip it a bit.) Add eggs and continue beating until fully incorporated. Then add maple syrup and vanilla, again beating until incorporated. In a separate bowl, combine cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Add dry ingredients to the wet ones in the mixer and beat on low until just combined/smooth. Set aside, do not add to baking dish yet. 
4. Melt peanut butter in microwave. Drizzle melted peanut butter over brownie batter. With a spatula or knife, very carefully swirl the peanut butter filling into the brownie filling. (Be careful not to mix the layers together, you just want to create a decorative pattern on top of the brownies.)
5. Bake for approximately 35 minutes. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out of the pan using the wax paper overhang. Cut into squares.

*The baking time time will vary depending on your stove and the pan you use. The longer you cook them the chewier they will be.  Cake-like brownies seem to take about 35 minutes, chewy brownies take about 45 minutes.
