Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plant-based butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup plant-based milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup natural cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Add-ins
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a baking dish with parchment paper. Gather and measure all ingredients to streamline the process.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: Melt the plant-based butter in a large bowl. Stir in the brown sugar until fully combined. Add plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract (natural). Mix well to form a smooth, velvety base.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, natural cocoa powder, baking powder, and natural gelling agent for an even texture.
- Bring it Together: Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently just until combined to avoid toughening the batter.
- Add Fresh Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, mixing just enough to distribute them evenly without crushing, maintaining juicy pockets.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until edges are set but center remains soft. Check doneness with a toothpick.
- Cool and Serve: Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing, ensuring moist, clean-cut squares packed with blueberries and chocolate.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients to blend smoothly and bake evenly.
- Gently fold in berries to prevent excess juice and soggy brownies.
- Remove brownies just before a toothpick comes out clean for a fudgy texture.
- Line your pan with parchment paper for easy removal and neat edges.
- Plant-based butter with salt enhances chocolate and blueberry flavors subtly.
