Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup cocoa powder
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup vegan chocolate chips (optional)
• 0.25 cup chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or almonds)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, mix the almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula or spoon. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 5

If using vegan chocolate chips and/or chopped nuts, fold them into the batter at this stage.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with the spatula.

Step 7

Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the top looks set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).

Step 8

Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack or cutting board by lifting the parchment paper.

Step 9

Once completely cool, slice into 9 squares and serve. Enjoy your quick and easy vegan brownies!
