TIPS FOR MAKING THESE SIMPLE VEGAN BROWNIES
DON'T OVER-MIX YOUR BROWNIES
Over-mixing your brownie mixture will cause them to have an unappetising texture. Just make sure your brownie batter is fully incorporated.
BAKE FOR LESS TIME IF YOU LIKE THEM GOOIER
Take 5 minutes off the total baking time if you prefer your vegan brownies to be a little wetter.
WHAT ARE BROWNIES?
Brownies are a chocolatey baked treat made primarily from flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and milk. As mine are vegan, I of course, used plant milk.

WHY YOU SHOULD MAKE THIS RECIPE
- It's so simple. Anybody is capable of making this recipe, no matter what your baking ability level is.
- The brownies are so chocolatey. This brownie recipe contains a generous amount of cocoa powder which gives the cakes a rich taste. I think it's the perfect amount but I may be biased!
HELPFUL TOOLS FOR MAKING THESE EASY VEGAN BROWNIES
- 2 Medium-sized Bowls
- 6x6 Inch Baking Pan
RECIPE VARIATIONS & SUBSITUTIONS
- Leave your vegan chocolate brownies in the oven for less time. If you like your brownies a little more moist, leave them in the oven for at least five minutes less time. The less you leave them in, the more gooey they'll be but make sure the flour is cooked!
Recipe FAQs
You do this by adding more vegan fats and decreasing the amount of flour. For example, changing the vegan butter to flour ratio. Removing the baking powder will also make the cakey textures less noticeable.
You may have over-baked them which will cause them to become dry. You may have underbaked them then sliced too soon. This causes the brownies to loose moisture.
