All you need is one bowl and a few ingredients to make these vegan dark chocolate espresso brownies – I dare to say that these are THE BEST healthy vegan brownies with no eggs, refined sugar or butter. Trust me!
I’ve been hesitant in showing you this recipe, thinking there are so many out there, so why mine? Well, I thought it’s such a great casual, basic recipe that you can make again, again and again. the recipe contains espresso and it really gives the brownie an outstanding flavor. You can totally get rid of it but I don’t recommend it 😉 Once you are good with the basic recipe you can start to adjust/add or give them a special twist such as orange zest or cooked beetroot.
There are no boundaries for your creativity!
I topped my brownies with cacao nibs but of course, you can top them with chocolate drops to make them sweeter!
