Yield makes 9 to 12 squares or 8 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 10

Oil for the pan
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup natural granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup rice milk or soymilk
1/2 cup natural peanut butter, at room temperature
1 cup vegan semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup chopped peanuts, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a 9-inch square or round cake pan.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl and stir together.
  • Combine the applesauce, rice milk, and peanut butter in another bowl and whisk together until smooth. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until fairly well blended, then whisk the mixture until smooth.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and optional peanuts. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden on top and a knife inserted into the center comes out with chocolate, but no batter.
  • Allow to cool to room temperature or just warm, then cut into squares or wedges to serve.
