Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free option)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Fruits and Add-ins

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients including flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and coconut sugar to evenly distribute them.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, melt the plant-based butter and combine it with plant-based milk, apple cider vinegar (natural), vanilla extract (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Whisk the mixture until smooth and slightly frothy for a creamy consistency.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently just until combined. Be careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick yet pourable.
  4. Fold in Fresh Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed without breaking them.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until edges are set but the center remains slightly soft to keep the brownies moist.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan to set their texture before slicing into squares to reveal the vibrant blueberry bursts.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for smoother mixing and even baking.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain a soft and tender brownie texture.
  • Fresh blueberries are preferred over frozen for better texture; if using frozen, thaw and drain well to reduce moisture.
  • Toss blueberries lightly in a bit of flour before folding to prevent sinking.
  • Test doneness early, as brownies continue to cook slightly after removal from the oven.
  • The natural gelling agent is optional but helps create a fudgier finish.
