Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the egg in this recipe?
Yes, you can use a flaxseed or chia seed egg as a substitute. To make one flax egg, mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons of water, let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens, and then add it to your mixture.
What can I add to the brownies for extra flavor?
Consider adding nuts like walnuts or pecans for texture, or mix in chocolate chips for extra chocolatey goodness. You could also incorporate dried fruits like cherries or cranberries for a tangy twist.
How do I know when the brownies are done baking?
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the brownies. If it comes out with a few moist crumbs, they are done. For fudgier brownies, aim for a slight stickiness on the toothpick; for cake-like brownies, it should come out clean.
