🌱 Indulgent Vegan Gooey Brownies

Rich, chocolatey, and completely plant-based—this recipe is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth with wholesome ingredients and a gooey texture that’s sure to impress.

Ingredients

Flaxseed Egg (or alternative):

• 4 tbsp ground flaxseed(If you don’t have ground flaxseed, you can grind whole flaxseeds with a mortar and pestle, or substitute with 2–3 ripe mashed bananas.)

Dry Ingredients:

• 1 cup plain flour

• 1 cup cocoa or cacao powder

• 1 cup dark brown sugar

• 1 tbsp baking powder

• ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

• 250g vegan dark chocolate (melted)

• 1 tbsp almond extract

• Prepared flaxseed mix or banana substitute

Optional Add-Ins & Toppings:

• Peanut butter balls (fold into batter before baking for a nutty surprise)

• Chopped mixed nuts or dried fruit for topping

Instructions

1. Prepare your flaxseed egg substitute by mixing 4 tbsp of ground flaxseed with water and letting it sit for 5–10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency. If using bananas, mash them until smooth.

2. In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine all dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

3. In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), stirring frequently to avoid overheating.

4. Mix the wet ingredients together: flaxseed mix (or banana), melted chocolate, and almond extract.

5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until you get a thick, smooth batter.

6. Pour the mixture into a lined or greased brownie tin. Add peanut butter balls, if using, and sprinkle over your chosen toppings.

7. Place the tray in the freezer for 1 hour to help the brownies set before baking (this step helps achieve that extra-gooey center).

8. Preheat the oven to 180–190°C (fan oven: 160–170°C). Bake for around 20 minutes, checking with a skewer or cake tester at the 15-minute mark. They should be slightly soft in the middle but cooked through on the edges.

Tip:

Let cool for at least 10–15 minutes before slicing to allow them to firm up. Serve warm with vegan ice cream or custard or enjoy as a rich snack any time of day.
