Easy Vegan Brownies

This recipe for easy vegan brownies is perfect when you’re craving chocolate brownies. They are thick and cake-like with loads of chocolate flavor. 

Made with avocado, coconut sugar, coconut milk, and coconut oil, these vegan brownies will completely blow you away.

Ingredients For Vegan Brownies:

To make these easy vegan brownies, you will need just a handful of pantry ingredients:

Avocado: You need about half of one avocado.

Coconut oil: Or any other oil that’s mild in flavor.

Flour: I used regular all-purpose but you could also do gluten-free blend.

Cocoa powder: Or you can use unsweetened cacao.

Coconut sugar: I stuck with the coconut theme here but you can use any unrefined sugar you wish.

Baking soda: To help the brownies rise.

Salt: To balance the flavors.

Coconut milk: I love the silky texture of canned coconut milk but refrigerated coconut milk will work just as well.

Feel free to get creative and mix in some of these for texture:

Vegan chocolate chips or chunks: Stir some through the batter and sprinkle some on top of the batter. YUM!

Flaked coconut: You can’t go wrong with this since there’s already a coconut theme here.

Chopped nuts: Mix them through the batter and sprinkle some over the top. You could also combine them with the chocolate chips/chunks.

All the above: Combine chocolate chips, Flaked coconut, and chopped nuts for the ultimate brownie!

To bake these brownies you’ll need:

*8-inch pan: I baked these brownies in an 8×8 pan that I found in TJ Max. I don’t have a product link for that one but I also own this one from USA Bakeware and it works well.

*Muffin Pan: Alternatively, you can bake these vegan brownies in a regular muffin pan sprayed with nonstick spray.

*Mixing bowl: These Pyrex glass bowls are my favorite. I use them regularly.

*Whisk: Oxo 11-inch balloon whisk is a great brand. I have this from them.

How To Make Vegan Brownies:

This recipe is so easy! All you need to do is…

1. Combine the avocado and oil. Mash the avocado or puree it in a blender then whisk it with the coconut oil until they are very well combined.

2. Whisk in the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda, salt, and coconut milk. Just dump everything into the bowl with the avocado mixture and whisk it until everything is combined.

3. Transfer the batter to the pan. Use a silicone spatula to spread the batter evenly into the bottom of the pan. The batter will be very thick.

4. Bake. Bake the brownies for about 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. You can underbake them ever so slightly to get a fudgier texture.
