Total Time 55 minutes
Choose Serving Size 8 brownies

Ingredients 

For the brownie:

  • 100 g dark chocolate melted
  • 2 Tbsp flax meal mixed with 6 Tbsp espresso coffee to make a flax egg
  • 50 g brown sugar
  • 6 Tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 1 Tbsp applesauce replace with a fruit jam of choice if you don't have this
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 120 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt

For the topping:

  • 2 bananas halved horizontally
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • In a small bowl, mix the warm coffee with the flax meal. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the coconut oil, applesauce, and brown sugar. Mix until well incorporated.
  • Stir in the flax egg, vanilla extract, and melted chocolate, mixing until you achieve a smooth, homogeneous batter.
  • Using a spatula, stir in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  • Grease a square baking tray. Transfer the batter to the dish, flatten it with a spatula, lay the banana halves on top, sprinkle with brown sugar, and bake for about 40 minutes, until set and caramelized on top.
  • Let cool for about 30 minutes.

Notes

Use a certified dairy-free / vegan dark chocolate to keep these fully vegan, since some dark chocolate contains milk solids. Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
