Recipe: Vegan brownies

Ingredients

2 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
2 cups brown sugar
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup chocolate chips
½ cup B-well canola and olive oil blend
1½ cups strong black coffee, cold
4 tsp apple cider vinegar
½ cup overripe banana, mashed

Method

1. Combine all the dry ingredients and the chocolate chips and mix well.

2. Mix all the wet ingredients together. If the banana is not very ripe, place it in a blender to get a smooth paste. It’s best to avoid lumps in this so that you don’t taste banana in the fudge later on.

3. Pour the wet into the dry ingredients and mix well.

4. Pour the batter into a pan which is greased (with olive oil) and dusted (with whole wheat flour) and place it in a preheated oven.

5. Bake at 170°C for about 15-20 minutes or until the top looks cooked.
