Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 3 tbsp warm water
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup (30 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) neutral oil
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) unsweetened plant milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (85 g) dairy-free dark chocolate chips, plus extra for topping
  • 1 tsp instant coffee granules (optional)

Method
 

  1. Make flax egg with water, then whisk in oil, plant milk, vanilla, and optional coffee.
  2. Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
  3. Fold dry ingredients into wet, then fold in chocolate chips until no streaks remain.
  4. Spread batter into a lined 8×8-inch pan, top with extra chips, and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25–28 minutes until a toothpick has moist crumbs.
  5. Cool completely in the pan, then slice into 9 squares.

Notes

Let the brownies cool all the way before slicing or the center will be too soft and the pieces won’t hold their shape. For extra clean cuts, chill the pan in the fridge for 30 minutes after cooling.
