1 1/4 cup (250 g) sugar
1/4 c (25 g) cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup (57 g) + 2 tbsp (28 g) applesauce
1/4 cup (60 ml) melted dark chocolate, cooled
1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetable oil
1/4 cup (60 ml) boiling water
Optional Add-ins:
1/2 cup (57 g) walnuts
1/2 cup (90 g) vegan chocolate chips
Preheat your oven to 350 F/176 C. Grease an 8″x8″ brownie pan. Whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
Pour applesauce, oil, and melted chocolate into the dry ingredients and stir with a wodden spoon until almost combined. The batter will be a bit difficult to fully mix together–you want this. Slowly add the boiling water until the batter becomes more manageable. You want it to be thick enough to be able to still stir but not thin enough where it’s runny.
Place in pan and bake for 35-40 minutes.

Looks like fudge to me. I love the walnuts.
It’s really hard to find a good dairy free fudge!! I may have to share mine for the holidays this year.
Yum! I always love finding guilt-free desserts! These look just like fudge, so I know they must be good! Thanks for sharing!
Yum! These look really good and fudgy like a brownie should be
WOW! These look so rich and delicious. More and more non-wheat flours are becoming readily available. I’ve never heard of black bean flour though. I’m going to hunt some down and try this recipe. Thanks for sharing the recipe and cookbook review.
