Vegan brownies with sour cherries

August 16, 2012 by Stacey 49 Comments

 Pin It
I have often thought about making vegan brownies but usually put it aside as it sounded harder than other vegan goodies – brownies have such a specific texture that I thought it would be somewhat difficult to replicate. Regular brownies are sort of crisp and chewy on the outside, with a dense, fudgy centre, and are not to be messed with.
I’ve done a lot of reading lately in an effort to make vegan brownies with a similar composition to regular brownies as opposed to cakey versions I’ve made in the past when purely veganising a non-vegan recipe. I don’t like brownies that taste like cake – I want brownies to taste like brownies! So with a little experimentation I think I’ve nailed it – and they’re not overly sweet, which I like. It sort of creeps up on you and the chocolate has the merest hint of coconut before the full choc flavour hits. To be honest, I am super-chuffed. I may or may not have called them the best brownies in the world… but you can be the judge of that. Maybe you like cakey brownies? If so, it’s probably best to end our friendship here.
A couple of things I learned in my readings are that sugar is non-negotiable for non-cakey brownies, as the more you skimp, the less brownie texture you get. Also, the mix has to be really, really dry before you bake it – all things I hadn’t really been concerned with before. So I made it drier and sugarier (but not using white sugar as it’s not vegan, and instead using sugars that are naturally less sweet) than I normally would. I also tried out coconut oil instead of the usual vegan margarine I would use, and that totally hit the spot.

It’s not a batter as such, but a wet mix of ingredients. That I couldn’t stop picking at, if I’m to tell the truth! You could even add some nuts along with the sour cherries – I would probably include Loving Earth’s Organic Activated Walnuts.

Anyhow, enough with the chatter, on with the recipe:

Ingredients:
2 tbs flaxseed meal
6 tbs hot water
3/4 cup Loving Earth Raw Organic Coconut Butter
100g Loving Earth Organic Sour Cherry and Acai Raw Dark Chocolate
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup Loving Earth Raw Organic Sour Cherries
1 cup Loving Earth Organic Coconut Sugar (or use two full cups of this)
1 cup sugar of your choice depending on how sweet you want your brownies (I used rapadura)
3/4 cup cocoa/cacao powder
1 cup almond meal
1 cup plain flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 180C.

2. Mix the flax meal and the water until thick, making a flax egg. Let sit for a minute or two.

3. Break the chocolate into pieces and add to a large bowl with the coconut oil. Melt in the microwave in short bursts – this shouldn’t take long as the Loving Earth chocolate is a different compound than regular chocolate. Add vanilla.

4. Add flax egg and mix.

5. Add sugar, cocoa/cacao powder, almond meal, flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Mix until thoroughly combined.

6. Put into a 6×10 inch (or similar) brownie pan lined with greaseproof paper or foil, either work well. Spend some time pressing down reasonably firmly to ensure a good consistency when baked. Smooth the top – I used a rubber spatula.

7. Bake 20-30 minutes until a skewer comes out of the middle relatively clean when tested – the mix shouldn’t be too wet. Take it out a bit earlier than you normally would to ensure a fudgy centre. It probably won’t look cooked (mine didn’t) but it’s best to err on the side of caution and take it out once it’s had 30 minutes.

8. Cool in pan until thoroughly cold so it won’t crack when you cut into it.

9. Feel as chuffed as I do that you just made a damn good brownie.

And now for the even funner stuff!

As you may already know, I have been working with Loving Earth, creating recipes from their super-awesome products, trying them out here and then giving readers a chance to win the same ingredients I used in the recipes… and today is giveaway day!

All’s you gotta do is leave a comment below telling us what you would create from at least two of these products. And don’t worry – I won’t steal your ideas, I promise! The recipe that gets us (i.e. me + Cormac from Loving Earth) drooling the most, wins. You don’t need full recipes or photos or anything – just tell us what you would whip up. And if you didn’t win this time? There’s another coming up in a few weeks with MOAR chocolate and new ingredients!

In this pack, you get:

Loving Earth Raw Organic Coconut Butter, 500g
Loving Earth Organic Coconut Sugar, 300g
Loving Earth Organic Sour Cherry and Acai Raw Dark Chocolate, 100g
Loving Earth Organic Coconut Mylk Raw Chocolate, 100g 
Loving Earth Organic Macqui Raw Dark Chocolate, 100g
Loving Earth Organic Sour Cherries, 100g
Loving Earth Organic Activated Pumpkin Seeds, 100g

Competition closes Friday, August 24 at 5pm. Winner will be notified by email (so make sure you’re contactable!) and announced on Facebook. You can enter as many times as you like. Entries are judged on creativity, and Judges’ decision is final. I love you all.

Ok, hop to it – I am very much looking forward to seeing what y’all come up with – partly because I’m nosy, and partly because you guys are way more creative than me!

*Disclaimer: I contacted Loving Earth directly with this idea as I really wanted to work with them. They couldn’t have been more friendly and willing to help. They generously gifted me two of each product that will be used over this series – one for me and one for you! That’s all, folks…

    Maybe I should add to our vegan-sugar discussion from a couple of weeks ago, I had found the use of unrefined sugars especially in vegan blogs/recipes from North America to avoid the issue of the use of bone char in the purification process for white sugars. Apparently bone char is not used in Australian sugar refining any more, though some overseas producers still use it – see note at the bottom of this page: http://www.vnv.org.au/site/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=66&Itemid=79

    Realistically? I would probably just eat the sour cherries on icecream. Or the chocolate on its own.  Or if I was really feeling inspried and ever had a chance to bake without a 2 year old's “help” I would try to concoct some sort of black forest cake thingy.

    Great comp! Stacey, Loving Earth make some incredible products, full of goodness (even the tasty stuff). Given my hubby is from London I would make this British recipe but I'm pretty positive it would look nothing like this picture. Nothing beats a dark chocolate cherry soufle (like I've had so many of them) but I would definitely master this recipe with the ingredients in the pack. http://www.greatbritishchefs.com/recipes/dark-cherry-souffle-recipe-ice-cream cheers, Pip x

    Hi Veggie Mama! Love the brownies recipe & love the sound of cooking with coconut sugar, as I tend to use Stevia or Aguave. I'd make a vegan sour cherry cheesecake with tofu & melt some of the chocolate so it's filled with chocolate swirl goodness! I'd also do a gluten free nutty base with cinnamon, coconut butter, almond meal, coconut sugar & other crushed nuts/ seeds..YUM!!! xx

    These look great. Do want – please send me some!

    Now for the competition…

    This SCREAMS chocolate cupcakes to me. Light, airy, fluffy moist cups of goodness. I would love to soak those cherries in a liqueur and then mash them so I could pipe it into the centre of deliciously airy cupcakes for a oozy juicy burst of flavour. Nothing like a little coconut cream icing on top finished with a drizzle of melted hot chocolate. (The chocolate could be drizzled on wax proof paper to create some funky shapes and then sat on top of the cup cakes to look stunning and inviting.)

    Too rich? Ok, what about this:

    You know I adore my sourdough bread. And I love cooking with coconut oil. So, a savoury pumpkin flavoured sourdough bread with that hint of nutmeg, cinnamon and coconut butter for fatty goodness. I always put some seeds or nuts on top of my breads before I bake, and Id have to top it with roasted pumpkin seeds. Hmm… hot bread, melted coconut butter and toasted nuts and seeds……… HEAVEN!

    Have you sent my cherry brownies yet?

    I'm addicted to coconut butter…I am always talking about it to people. A must try recipe which is divine are chocolate truffles. Whizz up about 100 grams of nuts (I normally use almonds, but any unsalted will do), about 20 dates or equivalent in loving earth organic sour cherries, 1 heaped tbsp of loving earth coconut butter, 2 heaped tbsp of coconut, 1 tsp cinnamon, 4 tbsp of cocoa powder, in a food processor. Roll into truffle size balls and then toss into a small bowl of coconut. Store in fridge for a healthy, energising sweet treat. Sometimes I use dried apricots/ raisins/ and add a little orange rind for a Jaffa taste. Very versatile and yum.

    This is SO easy to make and SO impressive and delicious to eat….alone or to share!! Perfect for a dessert, a snack, at the movies…givenfor a gift, anytime! This recipe uses ALL the ingredients above!!Basically, you just need to break up and melt the three blocks of chocolate in a heat proof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water with a tablespoon each of coconut butter and coconut sugar. When melted remove from heat and stir in 50g each of the cherries and pumpkin seeds. You could also add a pinch of sea salt too!Place a sheet of baking paper on a baking tray and pour the chocolate mixture on top. Spread out with a spatula, place in fridge to set. When hardened, break into small pieces, and INDULGE and ENJOY with someone else! Store in jars/sealed containers.You could also add chopped nuts, apricots, sultanas too!

    I would make a Decadent Cherry Coconut IceCream Cake
    Divide 4 litres of slightly softened vanilla ice cream into 3 bowls.
    In the first bowl, mix toasted slivered almonds and roughly chopped sour cherries.
    In the second bowl, mix a hefty quantity of raw organic cacoa powder.
    In the third bowl mix a combination of grated Loving Earth Organic Sour Cherry and Acai Raw Dark Chocolate and grated Loving Earth Coconut Mylk raw dark chocolate.
    Line an 8 inch spring form tin with baking paper and place all three layers in tin alternately with dark layer in the middle. Place in the freezer, refreeze. Turn out on a platter and sprinkle some reserved grated chocolate on top just before serving.

    Alternatively, These ingredients would make divine anzac biscuits with a twist. I always add fruit to my anzac biscuits, and the Loving Earth Organic Sour Cherries and Activated Pumpkin Seeds would be fantastic. Replacing the butter and sugar with Loving Earth Products would not only give the biscuits and extra coconutty kick but would make them so much healthier for school lunch boxes.
