Vegan Gluten Free Brownies (Fudgy with Crackly Tops)
Rich, fudgy vegan gluten-free brownies with crackly tops, chewy edges, and soft centers.
Ingredients
Brownies
- vegan butter
- granulated sugar
- soy milk
- cocoa powder
- gluten-free flour use a gluten-free flour blend such as Better Batter
- vegan chocolate chips
Optional Add-Ins
- applesauce 2 tablespoons, for extra gooey centers (optional)
- flax egg for extra gooey centers (optional)
Instructions
- Mix hot melted vegan butter with granulated sugar in a bowl until the mixture looks glossy and well combined.
- Stir in vanilla and soy milk until smooth, then add the dry ingredients, sifting the cocoa powder first if it’s lumpy.
- Fold in the vegan chocolate chips, then spread the batter into a lined 8×8 inch pan.
- Bake at 350°F (about 175°C) for about 30 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still looks slightly wobbly. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing so they can firm up as they rest.
Notes
Don’t overbake — they should look a little wobbly in the middle. Trust the process. For extra gooey centers, add 2 tablespoons applesauce or a flax egg.
