Ingredients

For the Brownies:

  • 100g vegan spread (or coconut oil)
  • 170g caster sugar
  • 90g plain flour (or gluten-free flour)
  • 55g cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 200ml plant milk (e.g., soy or almond)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 50g dark chocolate chunks
  • 50g fresh raspberries (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp freeze-dried raspberries (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9-inch square baking tin with baking paper.
  2. Prepare Vegan Buttermilk: In a jug, combine the plant milk and lemon juice. Stir and let it sit for about 10 minutes to curdle.
  3. Cream the Spread and Sugar: In a stand mixer or large bowl, cream together the vegan spread and caster sugar until well combined.
  4. Mix Dry Ingredients: Sift in the plain flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Add the prepared buttermilk and mix until a smooth batter forms.
  5. Add Chocolate and Raspberries: Gently fold in most of the chocolate chunks, fresh raspberries, and freeze-dried raspberries (if using). Reserve some chocolate chunks for topping.
  6. Transfer to Baking Tin: Pour the batter into the lined baking tin, smoothing it out evenly. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chunks and freeze-dried raspberries on top.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top begins to crack. The brownies should be soft in the center but firm around the edges.
  8. Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Slice and Serve: Once cooled, cut into squares and enjoy your delicious vegan raspberry brownies!

Tips

  • For extra fudginess, refrigerate the brownies for an hour after cooling.
  • You can substitute fresh raspberries with frozen ones if necessary; just ensure they are thawed before adding.
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate or add nuts for extra texture.

These Vegan Raspberry Brownies are not only easy to make but also provide a delightful balance of flavors, making them a perfect treat for any chocolate lover! Enjoy!
