Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 Tbs. butter I used vegan, soy-free Earth Balance Buttery Sticks
- 8 ounces chocolate chips (I used vegan chocolate chips)
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract (I used Rodelle Fair Trade Organic)
- 2 large eggs room temperature (check here for egg substitutes)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar (coconut palm sugar would be a worthy sub)
- 1/4 (27) cup (grams) gfJules grain-free Nada Flour OR 35 grams gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour* (1x recipe)
- 1 Tbs. Dutched cocoa
- 1/4 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Melt butter and chocolate chips gently in a double boiler (or microwave-safe bowl in a microwave), stirring over low heat until the chips are melted. Stir in the vanilla extract and set mixture aside.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine eggs and sugar and beat for 6 minutes until light. Add melted and slightly cooled chocolate mixture, beating to mix. Add Nada Flour, cocoa powder and salt, then mix just until integrated.
- Butter or oil a baking pan (I used a 10x7 pan for single recipe) then sprinkle lightly with more baking cocoa to coat. Pour batter into pan and smooth the top.
- Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the middle has risen and doesn't sink when pressed lightly with a finger. A butter knife inserted into the center should come out with a few crumbs and without looking totally wet.
- Remove to cool on a wire rack before cutting.
- For cleanest serving, use a plastic knife or pizza wheel to slice brownies.
