Ingredients

  • 1 stick of butter, softened or melted but not hot
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk (see note)
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt (1/2 or more if using unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup hazelnut meal

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 10 x 15" sheet pan with buttered & floured parchment.
  2. Whisk together all the wet ingredients, sugars, and salt. Stir in the dry ingredients until well-combined. Turn out onto the prepared sheet pan, spread the batter evenly.
  3. Bake for ~15 minutes, when done will be light brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Begin testing for doneness at 12 minutes.
  4. Note regarding coconut milk: I intended to use regular milk but had none. I had a carton of a new product I saw in the dairy case-- a coconut milk beverage in a half gallon carton. It is coconut milk plus carrageenan and some other stuff. It's pretty thick and rich even though it's just 80 cal per serving. Intended as a beverage. Looked like a thin unsweetened coconut milk. Could probably substitute regular canned (or freshly made) coconut milk or just whole milk.
