- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural)
- 1/4 cup plant-based milk
Toppings
- 1/4 cup colorful sprinkles (natural)
Instructions
- Prepare the Flaxseed Egg Mixture: Combine 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed with 6 tablespoons water in a small bowl and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes until thickened into a natural binder.
- Melt Plant-Based Butter and Mix Sugars: Gently melt 1/2 cup plant-based butter on low heat, then stir in 1 cup brown sugar until well combined and slightly cooled.
- Blend Wet Ingredients: Add the flaxseed mixture, 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural), and 1/4 cup plant-based milk to the butter and sugar mixture. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup natural cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent, and 1/4 teaspoon salt for a balanced flavor.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Carefully fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated, taking care not to overmix to keep the brownies tender.
- Add Sprinkles and Bake: Pour the batter into a greased baking pan, evenly sprinkle 1/4 cup colorful natural sprinkles on top, and bake at 175°C (350°F) for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares to maintain the rich, fudgy texture.
