Description
Fudgy and decadent Oreo brownies are THE brownies to make! Packed with rich chocolate and loads of Oreo cookies, these easy brownies are naturally eggless, dairy free, and easily gluten free, yet you’d never know!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cup (220 g) all-purpose flour or gluten free 1:1 baking flour
- 1/3 cup (35 g) grams cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted vegan butter or coconut oil, melted
- 6 ounces vegan chocolate chips
- 1 1/4 cup (250 g) granulated sugar or coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup (120 mL) aquafaba
- 2 cups crushed Oreos (about 16–18 Oreos, gluten free as needed)
- Additional 1/2 cup (80 grams) vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8×8 metal baking pan with parchment paper. Measure out all ingredients. Mix together the flaxseed with the water. Set aside.
- Whisk: Sift and whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt. Set aside.
- Melt: In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the vegan butter until hot. Add in the vegan chocolate chips, and whisk together until completely melted.
- Mix: Add in the granulated sugar, flaxseed “egg,” and aquafaba. Whisk together until completely combined. Then add in the flour and gently mix together. STOP mixing the flour JUST BEFORE the flour is completely mixed in.
- Fold: Add in the crushed Oreos (reserving about 1/4 cup of Oreos for the tops of the brownies) and additional chocolate chips, and use a silicone spatula to fold the Oreos and chocolate chips into the batter JUST UNTIL they are evenly distributed and the flour is JUST mixed into the wet.
- Bake: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, and place the remaining Oreos on top. Place the brownies into the oven to bake for 33-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean in the center (be careful- sometimes, the toothpick hits a chocolate chip, so it can be deceiving that the brownies aren’t baked!).
- Cool: Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to fully cool in their pan for 30 minutes before slicing.
- Slice and serve: Once cooled, slice the brownies with a large kitchen knife and in one fell swoop, slicing 16 brownies. Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container or bag for up to 5 days in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer.
Notes
Gluten free: Swap in gluten free 1:1 baking flour, and gluten-free Oreos for gluten free Oreo brownies.
