Ingredients

For the brownie batter:

  • 165 g all-purpose flour
  • 120 g cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 100 g light brown sugar
  • 150 g vegan butter melted
  • 250 ml soy milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 60 g vegan chocolate chips

Peanut Butter Swirl:

  • 150 g smooth peanut butter
  • 20 g vegan butter melted
  • 60 g powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preparation:

  • Preheat your oven to 180 Celsius (356F).
  • Line a 9-inch, square baking tin with parchment paper then set aside.

Make the brownie batter: 

  • To a large bowl, add the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined.
  • Next, in a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated and light brown sugars and vegan butter.
  • Next, pour in the soy milk and vanilla extract and mix again.
  • Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and fold them together until a smooth brownie batter forms. Also fold in the chocolate chips.

Make the peanut butter swirl mixture:

  • In a bowl, mix all four of the peanut butter swirl ingredients until combined.

Assemble & bake the brownies: 

  • Spoon the brownie batter into the lined baking tin. Spoon dollops of the peanut butter swirl mixture onto the top of the batter, then use the back of a knife or a skewer to swirl it into the brownie mixture.
  • Bake the brownies for 20 minutes in the center of your oven.
  • Allow the peanut butter brownies to cool in the baking tray for 10 minutes then serve warm. I like to have mine with dairy-free vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • I highly recommend eat that you consume the brownies while they're still warm. They taste great like this as they are so chocolatey. If you prefer them cooler, this is also fine.
  • This simple change will take your peanut butter brownies to the next level. Using higher-quality cocoa powder varieties instead of regular cocoa powder make baked chocolate goods beautifully rich and delicious.
