Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, oat flour, baking powder, and salt.
Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips or nuts.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.

Tips
Serving Suggestions: For a special treat, serve with a dollop of whipped coconut cream or a scoop of dairy-free ice cream.
Flavor Variations: You can add a pinch of cinnamon, espresso powder, or a few drops of peppermint extract to enhance the flavor.
Zero Point Adjustments: Keep in mind that the addition of chocolate chips or nuts will increase the points, so adjust according to your dietary needs.
