Vegan Brownies

Recipe View Prepare the Canvas: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). (5 minutes) Generously grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with baking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. (5 minutes)

Recipe View The Dry Ensemble: In a capacious bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until harmoniously combined. Ensure there are no lumps to mar the texture. (5 minutes)

Recipe View The Wet Infusion: Pour in the water, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring until just blended. Avoid overmixing, as this can lead to a tough brownie. The batter should be smooth and luscious. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven until the top is no longer shiny and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs, about 30 minutes. (30 minutes)

Recipe View Cooling and Cutting: Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Place the brownies on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 15 squares. (10 minutes)
