Yields: 16 squares
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 25-30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsweetened plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat)
- ½ cup vegan butter or coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup vegan chocolate chips or chunks
- Optional: ½ cup chopped almonds, pecans, walnuts, or peanuts
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk, melted vegan butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips and any of the optional chopped nuts if you are using them.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. The brownies will look a little underdone, but this is the key to a fudgy texture.
- Cool: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting them. This step is crucial for achieving that dense, fudgy consistency. For the best results, chill the brownies for at least an hour before slicing.
Enjoy your delicious, decadent vegan brownies!
