Ingredients :

Prep time: 20 min.

Cook time: 30 min.

Steps: 

  • Whisk together the soy yogurt and raw cane sugar.
  • Mix together the all-purpose flour, starch, almond flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the first mixture.
  • Melt together the 50g of AMATIKA 35% or AMATIKA 46%, grapeseed oil and flavorless coconut oil.
  • Add this mixture to the first, then stir until smooth.
  • Finally, use a spatula to add in the pecans and the 100g of unmelted AMATIKA 35% or AMATIKA 46%.
  • Line the pan with parchment paper or grease with oil, pour into a regular 8x8" brownie pan and bake at 340°F (170°C) for approx. 30 minutes. After 25 to 30 minutes, insert the tip of a knife into the center: it should come out with a few moist crumbs. The brownie will firm up as it cools to room temperature. Let it cool before cutting and enjoying.
  • Store these vegan chocolate brownies in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature. It is also possible to freeze this brownie if needed.
