Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (40g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (112g)
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (120g) Libby’s brand is my favorite.
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup (80g)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips divided
  • 1/2 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8x8-inch dish with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
  2. Mix together the cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Add the peanut butter, pumpkin, syrup, vanilla and eggs. Whisk to combine.
  4. Then fold in half of the chocolate chips and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake for 23-25 minutes. Be careful not to overbake. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out slightly crumbly (it will continue to bake in the hot pan after you remove it from the oven!)
  6. To make the chocolate drizzle, melt the remaining chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-seconds intervals, stirring in between, until melted. Then drizzle over the brownies.
  7. You can enjoy these brownies warm and gooey or chilled (both are amazing!) The melted chocolate will harden faster if you place it in the fridge.

Notes

  • To make dairy-free: use dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • To make vegan: use a flax egg in place of egg and dairy-free chocolate chips.
