Ingredients
Serves 12
-
- 200 g dark chocolate (dairy-free)
-
- 120 ml vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
-
- 200 g caster sugar
-
- 150 g plain flour
-
- 40 g cocoa powder
-
- 1 tsp baking powder
-
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
-
- 200 ml almond or oat milk
-
- Pinch salt
Optional:
-
- 80 g chopped walnuts
-
- 50 g vegan chocolate chips
-
- Pinch espresso powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 170°C and line a square baking tin with parchment paper.
Melt dark chocolate gently using a heatproof bowl over simmering water or in short microwave bursts.
Stir until smooth and allow to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk oil and sugar until well combined.
Add melted chocolate, vanilla extract, and plant milk.
Mix until smooth and glossy.
Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt together.
Sifting prevents lumps and ensures even texture.
Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture.
Do not overmix — stir just until no dry streaks remain.
If using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in gently.
The batter should be thick but pourable.
Pour batter into prepared tin and smooth the surface.
Bake for 25–30 minutes.
The edges should look set while the centre remains slightly soft. A skewer should come out with moist crumbs, not wet batter.
Allow brownies to cool completely in the tin.
Cooling helps them firm up and improves slicing.
