It is fall, and pumpkins are in season. Why not make use of their abundance by making pumpkin chocolate brownies? This dessert is often easy to make.
Author Laurie Bennett

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you need to make about nine brownies:

  • 2/3 cup Pumpkin puree
  • 2/3 cup vegan butter
  • 1 cup Brown sugar and salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • Cocoa powder
  • 1 cup All purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius and prepare your baking pan by greasing it at the bottom and sides.
  • Mix the pumpkin puree, vegan butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract, preferably with an electric hand mixer.
  • Add one cup of all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to the mixture and mix well.
  • Separate the mixture into two to form individual layers of the brownies.
  • Add extra pumpkin puree, spices such as Cinnamon, and flour to the first mixture. Stir the mixture well to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
  • To the second mixture, add cocoa powder and stir until uniformly mixed.
  • Add the chocolate mixture to your greased pan and scrape all the leftover mix using a spatula. Make sure it is uniformly spread.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, and use a toothpick to check if the brownies are ready.
  • Once fully baked, remove the brownies, let them sit for 10 to 15 minutes, and cut them into squares.

Notes

Brownies last long when stored properly, with ones stored in a freezer likely to last up to 4 months.
