One-Bowl Fudgy Gluten-Free Brownies
Chewy-edged, soft-centered gluten-free brownies made in one bowl for quick, reliable weeknight baking.
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups sugar
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp xanthan gum
- ⅛ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 large cold eggs
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- ⅓ cup avocado or canola oil
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp cold water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a 9×9” metal baking pan with parchment.
- In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, cocoa, flour, xanthan gum, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.
- Make a well in the center. Crack in the eggs, then add melted butter, oil, vanilla, and water. Stir until smooth.
- Pour into the pan and smooth the top.
- Bake 22–25 minutes, until the top is set and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in the pan before slicing.
Notes
Flaky salt on top before baking makes them extra gourmet. For dairy-free, substitute the butter with melted coconut oil. You can halve the recipe and bake in a loaf pan for a small batch.
