Gluten Free Brownies

by: claire cary

Need to satisfy your chocolate craving? These gluten free brownies are the perfect way to do it! They're fudgy, easy to make, dairy free and made with simple ingredients you probably already have on hand.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ⅔ cup semi sweet chocolate chips, divided
  • ¾ cup oil I used avocado, any neutral oil like refined coconut works
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp milk dairy or non-dairy
  • ½ cup + 2 tbsp Gluten free all purpose baking flour I used Bob's Red Mill
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  • Add 1 cup worth of the chocolate chips to a microwave safe bowl and microwave at 30-45 second intervals, stirring between each until completely melted.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla, milk and oil. Whisk in the melted chocolate
  • Add in the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder) and mix until a batter forms. Fold in the remaining 2/3 cup of chocolate chips.
  • Transfer to an 8x8 baking dish lined with parchment paper and spread the batter evenly. 
  • Bake for 30-38 minutes or until a toothpick comes out somewhat clean and the tops are nice and shiny/crinkly. I do about 33 minutes in my oven, but all ovens are different. Bake for longer for a less fudgy center and vice versa.
  • Let cool completely, then slice into 16 even squares. They slice much more neatly if you pop them in the fridge for about 20 minutes before slicing!

Notes

You can sub the white sugar for brown or coconut, but the brownie tops won't get as shiny!
I used the GF Bob's Red Mill 1:1 baking flour in the blue bag. You can try other GF baking flours, just make sure they have xanthan gum. You can also use regular all purpose flour instead. 
If you don't have a microwave, you can add the chocolate chips to a small pot, then put that pot in a larger pot with about an inch of water and melt over low heat, stirring regularly to prevent burning. 
You can use any kind of chocolate chips you like, but try to use good quality and avoid bittersweet. I suggest semi-sweet.
