Vegan Brownies

Ingredients:

180-200 ml coconut oil (about 10 tbsp)

250 ml coffee or water

250 g flour

150-200 g sugar (depending on how sweet you like it)

65 g cocoa

1 tsp salt

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

1 tsp baking powder

2 tsp vanilla

50-100 g chocolate, optional

50-100 g nuts, optional

 

Instructions:

1. Melt the coconut oil. Make the coffee or heat the water.

2. Mix the flour, sugar, cocoa, salt, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, and vanilla together.

3. Mix in the liquids.

4. Grate or chop the chocolate, if using, and add it and the nuts, if using, to the mixture.

5. Smooth into a greased pan and bake for 15-25 minutes at 180 C, until it is your preferred level of moisture (some people like cakey brownies, some prefer moist; I’m in the latter camp).
