Description
Jamie Oliver’s Vegan Chocolate Brownies are a dairy-free, egg-free version of the classic chocolate brownie, made using vegan ingredients like plant-based milk and oil. These brownies are deeply chocolatey, with a dense, fudgy texture that’s perfect for dessert or a snack.
Ingredients
-
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
-
- 1 cup caster sugar
-
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
-
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
-
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
-
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
-
- 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)
-
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks (dairy-free)
-
- Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a square baking dish (8×8 inches) with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, caster sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine thoroughly.
In a separate bowl, mix the vegetable oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the brownies tough. Add the dark chocolate chips (and nuts if using) and fold them into the batter.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. The brownies should be set on the edges but slightly fudgy in the center.
