Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cup Gluten free cup for cup baking flour
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder (sifted)
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 flax eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil (or canola coil)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup dairy free chocolate chips or chucks (divided)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of flaxseed with 5 tablespoons of warm water. Mix and let stand for at least 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Heat a medium saucepan on the stovetop to medium-low heat, pour in the water and sugar. Cook for 5-10 minutes, whisking occasionally. Once the sugar has completely dissolved, remove from heat and immediately pour into the wet ingredients.
  • Add the oil, flax eggs, and vanilla to the rest of the ingredients. Stir just until combined. Fold in ½ cup of the chocolate chunks/chips.
  • Pour the batter into the pan and use a spatula to smooth over the top. Try to create an even thickness throughout.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of chocolate over the top of the brownies, then transfer to the oven. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes back mostly clean.
  • Remove from the oven, let cool completely, and carefully lift out the brownies. Slice into 16 squares and enjoy!
