How to make Vegan Beet Brownies<\/h2>\n

To whip up these sweet treats,  mix up your wet ingredients \u2013 so beetroot puree, pure vanilla extract, applesauce (or pureed ripe bananas), and coconut oil. Blend until it’s a smooth mixture, then add in the flax egg, maple syrup, and a touch of coconut sugar for sweetness. Done<\/p>\n

In a separate large bowl, combine your dry ingredients \u2013 gluten-free oat flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a generous pinch of salt. Mix it all together, fold in some chocolate chips, and pour the batter into a parchment-lined 9×9 pan.<\/p>\n

Pop it in the oven at 350\u00b0F for 30-35 minutes until the top is set and dry. Don’t overbake these!<\/p>\n

As they cool on a cooling rack, the anticipation builds. Place them on a cutting board and slice into these decadent bites, and if you’re feeling extra indulgent, drizzle some melted chocolate on top of the brownie. It’s the perfect finishing touch to elevate your brownies into a work of art.<\/p>\n

Frequently Asked Questions: <\/h2>\n

How many beets shall I add? <\/h3>\n

The recipe calls for a 4 ounce beet. My 4 ounce beet was a smallish beet (not tiny). If you were to puree it up, it would be about 1\/2 cup of pureed beets.<\/p>\n

Can I use fresh beetroot? <\/h3>\n

You can start out with fresh beets but the recipe uses cooked beets. Cooking your beet brings out the natural sugars in it and cuts the earthy flavor that many people don’t love about beets. You can cook them, steam them or roast them. And yes you can use pre-cooked beets as a shortcut.<\/p>\n

Can you freeze these? <\/h3>\n

They work great for me in the freezer. I cut them into portions, freeze and take one out to thaw when I\u2019m craving one.<\/p>\n
