- Simple Ingredients: Using Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Flour ensures a perfect crumb without any gritty texture.
- Easy to Make: Minimal bowls, straightforward steps, and no fancy equipment required.

Ingredients
- 1 cup Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup coconut sugar or organic cane sugar
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil (or any neutral oil)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed (flax meal)
- 6 tbsp water (for flax eggs)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (optional but recommended)
Equipment
- Mixing bowl (medium size)
- Whisk or fork
- Measuring cups and spoons
- 8×8 inch baking pan
- Spatula
- Small bowl (for flax eggs)
- Oven
- Parchment paper (optional for easier removal)
Instructions
- Prepare the flax eggs: In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed with water. Stir well and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it thickens to an egg-like consistency.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your 8×8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, applesauce, flax eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
- Add chocolate chips: Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips for that extra melty goodness.
- Transfer to baking pan: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top evenly with your spatula.
- Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center — it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Cool and serve: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing. This helps them set and makes slicing easier.
Tips & Variations
“For a fudgier texture, slightly underbake your brownies and allow them to cool completely — they will firm up as they rest.”
- Nutty twist: Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
- Peanut butter swirl: Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter on top of the batter before baking and swirl with a toothpick.
- Spiced brownies: Add 1/2 tsp cinnamon or a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick.
- Chocolate chunks: Use chopped dark vegan chocolate bars instead of chips for bigger melty pockets.
- Make it gluten-full: If you’re not gluten sensitive, you can substitute with regular all-purpose flour, but maintain the same quantity.
