Here is a egg, dairy, and oil free recipe at least in the brownies themselves.
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp whole chia seed
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 1/2 cups cane sugar (those look like minuscule tan cubes)
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup cocoa powder (not so strong/bitter taste then just do 1/2 cup)
1 tsp vanilla
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and coat square cake pan with shortening/oil
- Grind the chia seeds, add 1 cup of water (I use a magic bullet equivalent and add the water after the chia seeds are powder, and blend it for about 2 seconds). You can just stir the water into the powder.
- Put cane sugar and 1/2 cup warm water into the Medium size mixing bowl and stir together.
- Add in the chia seeds mixture into the bowl
- Add in vanilla
- Add in baking soda and salt and stir
- Add in the cocoa powder and stir well try to diminish as many lumps as possible
- Add in the flour stir
- Add mixture to pan and make sure it is evenly spread
- Cook for about 30 minutes, or until brownies are firm (note the amount of time cooking varies depending on where you are residing, and time of year as well)
Hope you enjoy my recipe next time I will post a recipe using applesauce, and possibly bananas as well, granted I have not tried that out yet.
** Note: I did not use any oil, because of the water the oil will not actually settle into the mixture probably, and you will just have oily brownies, believe me that is what happened my first try. Here is a picture of finished and half eaten product. :)
