Vegan Ooey Gooey Brownies

Ingredients 1 pack of Master Mix 60g of chocolate 1 banana / 3tbs applesauce  1/4 cup of oil   Prep time: 5 minutes Bake time: 20-25 minutes Total Cook time: 30 mins

 

 

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 180⁰C 

2. In a medium bowl mash your banana till smooth and whisk in your oil till light and frothy. You can also use 3 tbs of applesauce, pear puree or your favourite egg replacer. Alternatively, whisk together 2tsp baking powder, 1tsp vegetable oil and 2 tbsp water and add to the oil. 

3. Pour in your pack of Master Mix and whisk till smooth

4. Add your chocolate chips (or chopped up chocolates) to the mix and stir in. You can set aside a few for topping the brownies if you'd like. 

5. Brush your 6 inch baking tin with some oil, then tip in your batter and smooth out the mix so it's evenly spread in the tin. Top with remaining chocolate.

6. Place your filled tin in the centre of the preheated oven and bake for 20- 25 minutes. 

You'll know its ready when the top is firm enough to tap and when you lightly press on the centre, it doesn't sink in.

7. Bring out your tin of brownies and leave to rest for at least 20 mins. I know I know... just try to resist... or chuck them in the fridge.

For ooey gooey brownies, if you insert a toothpick into the centre, it will come out a sticky licky mess.  If it comes out clean, it's overcooked and you'll have a cakey brownie to enjoy instead.

If you want it super gooey and almost falling apart, bake for 18 mins, Switch the oven off, then leave them in while the oven cools down. If you like it a little less gooey and more firm, go for the full 20 mins and leave it in a further 5 while the oven cools down.  

Remember that while the brownies are out of the oven and cooling down, they will be firming up, so don't be worried if they seem slightly undercooked at first.

Once cooled, turn out of the tin, slice and enjoy. This should get you 8 lovely gooey brownie pieces.
