Fudgy Dairy Free Brownies

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8x8-inch aluminum baking pan with parchment paper. Leave parchment paper hanging over the sides of the pan so that you can easily remove the brownies later.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles a paste that pulls away cleanly from the side of the bowl.

Step 3

Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Add in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt and whisk until just combined. A few flour specks are okay. Be careful not to over-mix the batter!

Step 5

Transfer the brownie batter to the prepared baking pan. Make sure it is spread evenly in the pan and into the edges. Top with chocolate chips if desired.

Step 6

Bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. The top of the brownies should be crinkly. Be careful not to over-bake or they will be too dry.

Step 7

Remove the dairy-free brownies from the oven and let them cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
