Vegan Avocado Brownies
Servings: 6-8
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 35-37 minutes
Total time: 55-57 minutes

INGREDIENTS
Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 ripe avocados, pitted (about 1 cup of flesh)
¾ cup maple syrup
6 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons dark cocoa powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup vegan chocolate chips, divided

Special Equipment
High-powered blender

PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray.
In a high-powered blender, combine the avocados, maple syrup, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend on high speed until smooth.
Transfer the avocado mixture to a large bowl. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Using a rubber spatula, mix the dry ingredients into the avocado mixture until smooth and no dry spots remain. Fold in about ¾ cup of the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips.
Bake the brownies for 20–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool for 15–20 minutes before cutting into individual brownies.
Enjoy!
