Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rich cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder with natural gelling agent
- Pinch of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup plant-based dairy (butter or cream)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract
Fresh Fruit
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking pan with vegetable oil. Sift the dry ingredients like flour, cocoa powder, baking powder with natural gelling agent, and salt into a bowl to remove lumps and ensure even mixing.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, plant-based dairy, and vegetable oil until smooth. Add the natural vanilla extract for a subtle aromatic touch that makes the brownies truly irresistible.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Slowly fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently to create a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix so your brownies stay tender and moist.
- Add Fresh Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly for bursts of juicy sweetness throughout the brownies.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Let cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Use ripe blueberries: The fresher and plumper the berries, the juicier your brownies will be.
- Don’t overmix: Stir until ingredients just combine to keep the texture light and tender.
- Room temperature ingredients: Ensure all wet ingredients are at room temperature for smooth blending.
- Avoid excess moisture: Pat berries dry if washed to prevent the batter from becoming too runny.
- Let cool fully: Cooling allows the brownies to firm up and develop richer flavors.
