We Used Flax Eggs In Our Ultimate Vegan Fudge Brownies

Our vegan brownie recipe is made with vegan butter, no eggs, dairy-free and practically made like any other homemade brownies with frosting.  Just a few minor change-ups and for the egg replacement, we used flax eggs in the brownie batter.  And it works deliciously!

Flax eggs are like magic! Have you tried them? They are wonderful when baking in cookies, brownies, cakes, donuts, pancakes, etc.

All you need to make flax eggs is flaxseed meal and water!

• 1 egg = 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water.  Let rest for 5 minutes to thicken and add to your recipe and voila!  “Magic” like we said!  Super easy and works like a charm.

Instructions How to Make Ultimate Fudge Frosted Brownies

Ultimate Brownies

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper.
2. Make the flax eggs by stirring the ground flax and water in a small bowl. Set mixture aside to thicken for 5 minutes.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the melted vegan butter and sugar together. Add in the flax eggs, almond milk, oil and vanilla, then whisk until evenly combined.
4. Add in the cocoa powder and mix into the wet ingredients, then add in the flour, salt and baking powder and stir with a large wooden spoon until just combined, do not over mix.
5. Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared pan. Place in the oven and bake for 30 – 40 minutes, or until the brownies are set and a cake tester inserted into the center has moist crumbs attached. Do not overcook. Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely in the pan before frosting of cutting or before cutting into squares.

Chocolate Fudge Buttercream Frosting

1. Place all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse to incorporate, then process until the frosting is smooth or you can use a mixer and mix until creamy consistency is desired. Add more milk if necessary or more confectioner’s sugar as needed. Spread frosting on top of brownies, add sprinkles if desired.

More Variations

• Add some vegan chocolate chips or chocolate chunks in the batter or on top of the frosting, if you’re craving more chocolate flavor!  You can even amp up the chocolate flavor even more with some espresso powder either in the brownie batter or frosting!
• If you want to forego the frosting all together, you can leave brownies naked or drizzle some melted chocolate on top with some sprinkles!
