Egg-Free Brownies

Egg-Free Brownies with Powdered Sugar

These yummy egg-free brownies came from a desperate need for chocolate when my college roommate and I were super budget-conscious and our fridge was pretty empty. There are more steps than brownies from a box, but these from-scratch brownies are worth the work! If you're used to super-moist brownies, these will surprise you; they're are a little drier and a little more cake-like. Since making these, I find other brownies far too sweet.

Give this recipe a try and let me know what you think!

Ingredients
Materials
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
9” Round Pan
1 cup water
Saucepan
1/2 cup butter
Mixing Bowl
2/3 cup unsweet cocoa powder

2 cups white sugar

1 tsp vanilla

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° & grease a 9-inch round pan
  2. Combine 1/3c flour and water in a saucepan, stir until thick on medium heat, transfer to mixing bowl
  3. Melt butter, then add cocoa, mix until smooth, let cool
  4. Beat sugar & vanilla into cool flour mixture, stir in cocoa mix until well-blended.
  5. Combine 2c flour, baking powder & salt. Stir into batter until just-blended.
  6. If adding nuts, chocolate chips, or marshmallows fold in gently.
  7. Bake 20-25 minutes
  8. When cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar

    I love that you say they're not as sweet the usual brownie. Brownies to me are always far too sweet, so these look like a great alternative! Thanks for sharing, Leanne x

      I hope you try out the recipe and enjoy them, Leanne! I prefer these to "normal" brownies now for that very reason. And if you find they do need a little sprinkling of sweetness, they're great warmed up with vanilla ice cream!

    Going to try this! Have you ever used apple sauce as an egg replacement? I love the "perfume"/taste it gives to baked goods. I usualy use it for this one-bowl chocolate fudge cake recipe that I found off the Minimalist Baker.. OK I'm going to stop there because I'm drooling haha

    I love a good chocolate brownie. I have been trying lately to stay away from dairy. And i this would be be preferect for that. I used applesauce in my cake but not in a brownie to replace egg.

      Kristal, you're the second reader to bring up applesauce as an egg-alternative! I really need to get with the times on this! If you ever try it in brownies let me know how it goes!

    Yum! I always enjoy trying new brownie recipes. Planning on making some zucchini brownies today (my zucchini plant is always out of control this time of year), but I will have to pin this article to try your recipe sometime. Also, I just wanted to let you know that I LOVE the blue china and yellow flowers in your main picture.
