Nov. 22, 2017 · 8 Kommentare

It’s December soon and I start my Christmas bakery with these tasty Gingerbread Brownies with a luscious dark chocolate ganache

Have you already decided what you are going to bake during this years Christmas time? My „Pinterest-To-Do“ Boards are full and I can’t wait to bake my way through chocolate heaven and cinnamon world.


Talking about Chocolate and Cinnamon and maybe Christmas spices. I am a huge fan of classical brownies but this time I spiced up an old recipe with some festive Christmas spirit spices and came up with these Gingerbread Brownies.

While Christmas is a time to indulge and an excuse to dive in the vast variety of sugary and fatty desserts, these brownies are actually quite healthy.

They are

VEGAN

DAIRY-FREE

made with NO REFINED SUGAR

have LESS FAT THAN NORMAL BROWNIES

are SUPER EASY TO MAKE

are the perfect MATCH OF GINGERBREAD AND BROWNIE

The main difference to „normal“ brownies is the complete avoidance of butter and the substitute of the whopping amount of sugar with applesauce and maple syrup and off you go!

    Forgot to mention that I thought the recipe calls for a „teaspoon“ of baking soda and made it accordingly. I liked the end result so I’m gonna stick with a teaspoon.
