Oat Flour Brownies
Description
This recipe for Oat Flour Brownies uses oat flour as the grain component, blended with unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. The wet ingredients include eggs, avocado oil, maple syrup, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract. Combining these gently results in a batter that bakes into a dense, moist brownie with chocolate chips incorporated for added texture and richness.
The brownies are baked in an 8x8-inch pan until just set and a toothpick comes out clean, then cooled before cutting to enhance texture and avoid burning mouths on hot brownies. The crumb is soft but holds together well, making them easy to slice.
These brownies are suited for an indulgent snack or dessert, especially for those looking for alternatives to wheat flour. Their chocolate flavor is true and pairs well with coffee or milk.
If making oat flour at home, about 1¼ cups of rolled oats blended results in 1 cup of oat flour needed for this recipe.
