Ingredients

Brownie batter:

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

Pumpkin batter:

  • 250 g pumpkin purée
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 25 g granulated sugar
  • 60 ml soy milk
  • 30 ml vegetable oil
  • 80 g all-purpose flour sifted
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preparation:

  • Grease a 23cm x 23cm (9 inch), square baking tin with cold vegan butter. Line with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 180 Celsius (356F).

Make the brownie batter:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Mix well.
  • To a separate large mixing bowl, add both sugars, melted butter. Whisk well, then pour in the soy milk and vanilla. Mix again.
  • Gradually, fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture until almost all the flour pockets are gone. Fold in the chocolate chunks, then fold in the final pockets of flour.

Make the pumpkin batter:

  • To a large bowl, pour in the pumpkin purée, vanilla extract, granulated sugar, soy milk and vegetable oil. Whisk well.
  • In a separate small bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Add the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Fold until they are just combined.

Assemble the brownies:

  • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking tin. Make sure it is nice and smooth.
  • Use a spoon to create two well holes inside the brownie batter (see step by step instructions on post with images). Add the pumpkin mixture to the holes.
  • Use a long skewer to create a pattern you like by mixing the two mixtures (see step by step instructions again). This can get quite messy. The main thing is that the two mixtures are a little combined. 
  • Place into the oven and bake for 23-25 minutes.
  • Let the brownies cool, the slice and serve.

Notes

  • Leaving the vegan pumpkin brownies in the oven too long will cause them to dry out quickly and become unappetizing. Don't over-bake them. If you would like the even gooier, you can try leaving them inside the oven for a few minutes less than the recommended time.
  • Failing to line your baking tray prior to baking can have negative consequences. Don't forget to do this. The brownies could potentially get stuck to the bottom of the tray if you don't line it.
  • When you have poured the brownie batter into the baking tin, make wells in the batter with a spoon. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the wells then use a skewer to swirl the mixture into the brownie batter. Create some nice patterns.
