Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup ground chia (or ground flax)

  • 1 cup cane sugar (or raw cane sugar)
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Combine the ground chia and water in a bowl. Whisk to combine. Wait 10 minutes for consistency to become egg-like, set aside. (This is your chia egg).
  • Preheat the oven to 350F/180C. Line a square 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper (allowing flaps on either end for easier lifting).
  • In a saucepan melt the coconut oil, then add the cane sugar, coconut sugar and vanilla. Whisk in the chia egg to combine.
  • In a large mixing bowl, sift the cocoa powder and coconut flour into the bowl. Add the baking powder and the salt and mix to combine. Then pour in the liquid mixture. Stir everything to combine, but don’t over mix. Add the vegan chocolate chips and stir gently to combine.
  • Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared square pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle with more chocolate chips to top.
  • Bake the brownies until the edges are firm and a toothpick inserted into the brownie comes out clean, 25 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes, then lift the brownies from the baking pan and cool completely on a baking rack before cutting.
  • Cut the brownies into squares and enjoy!

Notes

Brownies will keep in fridge for up to 5 days. Store in an airtight container. They can also be frozen, thaw for 1-2 hours before serving.
