Vegan Brownie Recipe

These vegan brownies are truly the best. Fudgy and gooey in the middle with the crackly tops, they are easy to make and use simple ingredients!

I know I shouldn’t play favorites, but brownies have to be my favorite dessert. Whether they are made with protein or made in the air fryer, I’m a fan.

Contrary to popular belief, brownies are suitable for a vegan diet. Simply omit the eggs and dairy and you are all good.

Start by preparing the flax egg by combining the ground flaxseed with the brewed coffee. Let it sit for 10 minutes for a gel to form.

Next, melt the chocolate, either in the microwave or using a small saucepan over the stove. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar and butter until smooth. Add the vanilla extract, melted chocolate, and prepared flax eggs and whisk well, until combined and glossy. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, and mix until just combined. If you like, fold through more chocolate chips.

Now, transfer the batter into a greased square pan. Bake the brownies for 27-30 minutes, or until a skewer comes out mostly clean. Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely, before slicing and serving.

To enjoy brownies warm and gooey, heat in a microwave for 30-45 seconds, and top with some coconut whipped cream or enjoy as is!

Contrary to popular belief, vegan desserts aren’t necessarily healthier than traditional ones. They contain just as many calories, fat, and sugar, if not more. If you’d like a healthier dessert, try healthy brownies.

Most commercial brownie mixes require eggs and/or butter in them to form the batter. However, you can replace the eggs with an egg substitute and the butter with a butter substitute.
