Total Time: 50 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten free flour blend
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the dessert.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of gluten-free flour blend, 1/2 cup of cocoa powder, 1/2 cup of coconut sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until they are well blended and free of lumps.
- In another bowl, melt 1/2 cup of butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Allow it to cool slightly, then add 2 eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk the wet ingredients together until they are fully combined and smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly to ensure uniform baking.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the dessert to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cut into 8 equal squares and serve. You can enjoy these gluten-free chocolate desserts plain, or top them with whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra treat.
Tips
- Use Quality Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for high-quality cocoa powder and gluten-free flour blends. This makes a significant difference in the taste of your dessert.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining your wet and dry ingredients, mix just until combined. Overmixing can lead to a denser texture, so embrace those little lumps!
- Check for Doneness: Ovens can vary, so start checking your brownies at the 25-minute mark. A toothpick should come out with a few moist crumbs for that perfect fudgy texture.
- Let Them Cool: Allow your brownies to cool completely before cutting. This helps them set and makes slicing easier, resulting in cleaner edges.
- Customize Your Toppings: Get creative with your toppings! A dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of sea salt, or fresh berries can take your dessert to the next level.
- Storage Tips: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for a longer shelf life. You can also freeze them for a sweet treat anytime!
