This recipe is the only low fat brownie recipe that has ever turned out well for me! It does not yield a odd texture like other low fat brownies. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup cocoa powder |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons non-hydrogenated vegan margarine |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 3/4 cups brown sugar |
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree or 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie filling |
3/4 cup applesauce |
1/3 cup chocolate chips (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a medium bowl sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. Microwave the margarine* in a small bowl until melted. Let cool .
4. Mix margarine and sugar in a large bowl.
5. Add applesauce and mix.
6. Beat in the vanilla extract and pumpkin.
7. Add flour mixture to the large bowl and mix. Stir in chocolate chips if using.
8. Grease a 8x8-inch pan with cooking spray and pour in batter.
9. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted and removed clean.
10. *I like to use Smart Balance Light for my margarine.
11. ** For mint brownies add 1/2 -1 tsp of peppermint extract.
