Fudgy Dark Chocolate Vegan Brownies

Vegan brownies that are very chocolatey, with a melt-in-your-mouth center and a crackly top.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes
Servings: 16 brownies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup plant milk
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line an 8x8 pan with parchment.
  2. Whisk the flour, cocoa, and sugar in a large bowl.
  3. Stir in the melted coconut oil, plant milk, maple syrup, and vanilla until a thick batter forms.
  4. Fold in the dark chocolate chips and spread the batter evenly in the pan.
  5. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes until the top is set but the center is still soft.
  6. Let cool completely in the pan, then chill 20 minutes before slicing for clean, fudgy squares.

Notes

Underbake slightly for the fudgiest texture; they firm up as they cool.
