Vegan Brownies
Super chocolately and rich! These vegan brownies are dense and delicious.
Servings: 12 slices
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
- 6 tbsp (90 ml) water
- 1 cup (125 g) plain flour
- ½ cup (50 g) cocoa powder
- ½ cup (70 g) ground almonds
- ¼ tsp salt
- 7 oz (200 g) dark chocolate
- ⅓ cup (75 g) margarine
- 1¼ cups (250 g) sugar
- ½ cup (120 ml) oat milk or soy
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the fan oven to 170°C (340°F).
- Stir together ground flaxseeds and water and set aside to create a 'flax egg'.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, ground almonds and salt ('dry mix'). Try to break up any lumps.
- Melt 4 oz (120 grams) of the chocolate together with the margarine (see notes).
- To the melted chocolate, add the sugar, 'flax egg', oat milk and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined ('wet mix').
- Add the wet mix to the dry mix and stir well to create a uniform batter.
- Roughly chop the remaining chocolate and stir it into the batter.
- Pour the batter into a lined square 7-8 inch (about 20 cm) cake tin.
- Bake at 170°C (340°F) for 25-35 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out with moist crumbs.
- Leave to cool in the tin, remove the brownie and cut into pieces with a warm knife.
