Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 45m

Yield 2 inch squares, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 cups packed brown sugar
3/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups traditional whole wheat flour
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 9x13 inch pan.
  • Melt butter in microwave-safe bowl or in saucepan over low heat. Add sugar and stir to combine.
  • Return mixture to heat briefly until it's hot and starting to bubble (this allows the sugar to dissolve, which will yield a shiny top crust).
  • Stir in cocoa, baking powder, salt, espresso powder, and vanilla. Cool until you can test with finger and mixture feels like comfortably hot bath water.
  • Mix in applesauce.
  • Whisk in eggs, stir until smooth, then add the flour and chips, again stirring until smooth. Spoon batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake until sharp knife or cake tester poked in middle reveals wet crumbs but not raw batter, 30 minutes. The brownies should feel set on edges and in the center. Remove from oven and cool on rack, cover when cool. Let sit overnight before serving to allow the bran to soften.

WHOLE WHEAT BROWNIES

I found this terrific brownie recipe on the website mightyfoods.com. Not only does it use whole wheat flour, but it calls for brown rice syrup in place of refined sugar. I've been experimenting with whole wheat brownie recipes, and so far this is my favorite. Resist the temptation to eat them right out of the oven-- both the texture and the taste are soooo much better after they've cooled/been refrigerated. If you can't find brown rice syrup in your grocery store, try the local health food store. They almost always carry it. Also, I've found that when cooking with whole wheat flour brand name counts. I prefer King Arthur Flour, but any good quality fresh flour will do. If you don't want to use straight whole wheat, go for whole wheat pastry flour or white whole wheat.

Time 35m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ounces bittersweet chocolate
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup brown rice syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
3/4 cup coarsely chopped nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease an 8"x8" square cake pan.
  • In a heavy bottomed saucepan over very low heat, combine the chocolate, cocoa powder, and butter. Stir constantly until melted and smooth. Add the brown rice syrup and vanilla. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
  • Once cool, add the eggs and stir until well-combined. Add the flour and nuts (if using) and stir until almost combined. Add the salt,and gently stir until just combined, being careful not to over mix the batter.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and spread to the edges. Place in the oven on the center rack.
  • Bake, until the kitchen smells of chocolate, the center is firm to touch, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
  • Allow to cool in the pan for at least a full 10 minutes. Invert pan and remove brownies, and place on cooling rack.

DOUBLE FUDGE WHOLE WHEAT BROWNIES



Double Fudge Whole Wheat Brownies image

This is a great way to sneak whole grains into your diet! From King Arthur Flour Whole Grain Baking, they recommend waiting 24 hours before cutting these, but my DH loves them hot out of the pan. They do seem more moist the second day. I have found that they crumble easily, but taste oh-so-yummy, I can live with the crumbles! Preparation time is estimated.

Time 1h

Yield 24 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup dutch process cocoa
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease a 9 x 13 pan.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the sugar and stir to combine. Heat briefly until it is hot and beginning to bubble. This dissolves more of the sugar, giving you a shiny top on the finished brownies.
  • Stir in the cocoa, baking powder, salt, espresso powder (if using--I never do), and vanilla. Cool until you can test it with your finger. (I put it in the fridge for 5 minutes if I'm in a hurry.) Whisk in the eggs, stirring until it is smooth and slightly thickened, then add the flour and chocolate chips. Stir again until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, bake 30-35 minutes, or until a cake tester shows wet crumbs, but not raw batter. (Mine always looks wet to me, but I think it's the chocolate chips!)
  • Remove from the oven and cool the pan on a wire rack. My DH eats them as soon as they are cool enough to handle! My cookbook recommends waiting overnight before serving. This allows the bran to soften.
  • Enjoy!
