INGREDIENTS
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup ripped banana mashed
- ½ cup soy milk
- 2 teaspoon vinegar
- ½ cup coconut oil melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Other Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegan chocolate chips
METHOD
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and layer the bottom of an 8x8” baking pan with parchment paper that has an overhang on the sides to help transfer out the brownie once baked.
- Combine soy milk and vinegar in a separate bowl or jug and mix together till it forms into soy buttermilk. Set aside.
- Dry ingredients - Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder through a fine mesh sieve into a mixing bowl. Then mix in sugar, salt and instant coffee.
- Wet Ingredients - In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and soy buttermilk.
- Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients till it forms into a thick batter.
- Then transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan. Press it down with a spoon to evenly flatten it out. Press over some chocolate chips on the top. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool completely for about 20-25 minutes. Then use the parchment paper overhang to lift out the whole brownie and transfer it to a cutting board to let it cool completely.
- Slice the whole brownie into 16 bars before serving.
NOTES
- Ripe bananas: Use overripe bananas for the optimal sweetness and texture.
- Don't overmix: Mix just until combined to avoid tough brownies.
- Properly line the pan: Ensure the parchment paper overhangs the pan for easy removal and clean cuts.
- Check doneness: You’ll know the brownies are done when a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Even slicing: Use a sharp knife and clean it between cuts for neat squares. Wash it with hot water between slices and dry it with a cloth for the best results.
- Ingredient temperature: Use room temperature ingredients for even mixing.
