Ingredients
- 300 grams Silken tofu
- 75 grams Coconut oil
- 120 milliliters Maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 100 grams Brown sugar

- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 100 grams Dairy-free chocolate chips

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a square 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a blender or food processor, combine the silken tofu, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Pour the blended tofu mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula until fully combined.
Step 5
Stir in the dairy-free chocolate chips and optional chopped walnuts, ensuring an even distribution throughout the batter.
Step 6
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
Step 8
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 squares for serving.
Step 9
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
