Servings:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line a 9in x 5in loaf pan with parchment paper.
Put the oil and the chocolate chips together into a medium sized microwave safe bowl and mix. Then microwave the bowl for 45 seconds and mix. If this isn't enough to melt the chocolate then put it into the microwave for 15 second increments and mix until melted.
Add the egg and maple syrup to the chocolate bowl and mix.
Add the salt, vanilla, and almond flour to the chocolate mixture and mix.
If you are adding in candy coated chocolates, fold them in now.
Pour the batter into the pan and make sure the batter is distributed evenly.
Bake for 15-18 minutes. The edges should be set and harder and the middle will look less cooked. Cook for 15 minutes for gooier brownies. Cook for 18 minutes for more cakey brownies.
Remove from the oven and let them sit for 5-10 minutes before removing from the pan and cutting. Eat them cool or warm.

Don't microwave the chocolate for too long in the microwave. Start by microwaving the chocolate for 45 seconds only. Don't do longer because you could burn the chocolate. This looks like hardened, hard to mix chocolate.

If you want gooey brownies, remove the brownies at the 15 minute mark. Then let them cool for 5-10 minutes. The center will look a bit wet, while the edges will look done and feel hard to the touch.
