Gluten Free Fudge Brownies

Gluten Free Fudge Brownies

Gluten freedom doesn’t have to equate boredom! If you feel like being especially indulgent, add 1/2 cup (88 g) nondairy semisweet chocolate chips to the batter of these fudge-like brownies.

Gluten Free Fudge Brownies


Non-stick cooking spray
1 cup (175 g) nondairy semisweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled
1/2 cup (128 g) sweet potato purée
2 tablespoons (30 ml) canola oil
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (90 ml) soy creamer or nondairy milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
1/3 cup (53 g) brown rice flour
2 tablespoons (10 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon (8 g) instant coconut milk powder, optional

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4). Lightly coat an 8-inch (20-cm) square baking pan with spray.
In a large bowl, combine melted chips, sweet potato purée, oil, creamer or milk, and extract.
In a medium bowl, sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and optional coconut milk powder.
Fold dry ingredients into wet, being careful not to over mix.
Place and level batter into prepared pan.
Bake for 26 minutes.
Let cool in pan, on a wire rack. Let cool completely in fridge before
slicing.
Enjoy cold, store in fridge.

    Yum! Yum! I love brownies with sweet potato (I make the Simple Treats ones all the time–but they have gluten). These sound incredible. I may have to break down and try something with soy creamer in it, just to try these out! :)

    you don’t have to use soy creamer, Ricki, if you don’t want to. any milk alternative would do just fine.

    yay, healthyceliac! you know you can make the butterscotch ones with brown rice flour too, only reason I didn’t was because I wanted to try something different at that moment.

    Mmm…those sound fantastic! I don’t have any sweet potatoes, but I may give these a try with that can of pumpkin that has been lurking in my cupboard for quite a while…

    Merci, Celine! My mom was recently diagnosed with Celiac, so I’ll have to bake these for her sometime. :)

    In my first batch I used olive oil because I was out of all others…it was uniquely good. I liked my 2nd batch with a milder oil best but a friend like the olive oil better.

    Also, these are great when you add chocolate chips to the batter (and some dried cherries!)

    Don’t you love how vegan treats are still healthy? I couldn’t adore my choice to turn full vegan from lacto ovo veg more. I’m eating better and happier than ever.
