Vegan Fudge Brownies

• 2 cups flour
• 2 cups sugar
• ½ cup cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup vegetable oil (½ cup can be substituted
with apple sauce for a
more cake-like brownie)
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
(optional)
• ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
2. Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Whisk together wet ingredients and fold into
the dry ingredients. If desired, add half the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts to the
mix. Pour mixture into the prepared pan and sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips
and walnuts, if using.
3. For fudge-like brownies, bake for 20-25 minutes. For cake-like brownies, bake
25-30 minutes. Let the brownies cool slightly before serving.
