Ingredients

For the Brownies:

  • 1 cup (240ml) ripe mango puree (about 2 ripe mangos, blended)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) melted coconut oil or vegan butter
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (90g) vegan chocolate chips (optional)

For Topping:

  • Additional mango slices or chunks for garnish (optional)
  • Vegan sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. Prepare the Mango Puree: If using fresh mangos, peel and chop them, then blend until smooth to create about 1 cup of mango puree.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mango puree, melted coconut oil or vegan butter, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: If using, fold in the vegan chocolate chips for extra chocolaty goodness.
  6. Pour into Baking Dish: Transfer the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  8. Cool and Slice: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then lift them out using the parchment paper and let them cool completely on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
  9. Serve: Optionally top with additional mango slices or vegan sprinkles before serving.

Tips

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • Customization: Feel free to experiment by adding nuts or substituting half of the flour with almond flour for added texture.
  • Fudginess Factor: For extra fudgy brownies, slightly underbake them and let them set as they cool.

These Vegan Mango Brownies are a delightful way to enjoy a tropical twist on a classic dessert! Perfect for parties or as a sweet treat at home, they’re sure to impress anyone who tries them! Enjoy!
