Best Vegan Chocolate Chip Brownies

Seriously, these are the best vegan brownies. They are easy to make, and perfectly fudgy with a rich chocolate flavor. Recipe makes about 16 squares.

SERVINGS:
COOKING TIME:

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup sugar
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 5 tbsp applesauce
  • 0.5 cup neutral oil
  • 1 tbsp vanilla sugar
  • 0.75 cup cocoa powder
  • 1.5 cup all purpose flour
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 100 g plant-based dark chocolate, roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius.
  • Heat a pot to medium heat. Add in sugar and water and whisk together, stir occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together all dry ingredients (vanilla sugar, cacao powder, flour and salt).
  • Once the sugar has completely dissolved, give it a final whisk, then pour it into the dry ingredients.
  • Add all remaining wet ingredients (applesauce and oil) and mix together until a batter forms. Careful not to over mix, stir just until combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and then transfer the batter into an 8×8 baking dish lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake for about 35 minutes, or until desired consistency. Bake for longer if you don't like a fudgy inside and shorter if you want them really fudgy.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely, then slice into 16 squares. Enjoy!
