    How to Make Ultra Fudgy Vegan Brownies

    Once you finish this batch of vegan brownies, you'll be thinking of the next opportunity to make them again!

    Lately, I've been using an egg-replacer powder when it comes to my vegan baking. I've also been using ingredients such as coconut oil and vegetable oil as my butter replacement and those have been working out great! I wanted to try something different for these vegan brownies.

    At least once a week, I stop for a visit at my local organic market and peruse through the latest and greatest dairy replacements. I've been fascinated by this ever since I found out that I needed to lower my cholesterol...it's like those lab results opened up a whole new world of ingredients for me to work with.

    With this recipe in particular, I knew I wanted to try working with vegan butter. I picked up a box of that (they only had a salted version) along with some organic applesauce to use for my egg replacement. The end result? A decadent and VERY fudge-like brownie. I would say this experiment was a success. The only difficult part of this recipe was waiting for it to cool down enough to enjoy a piece!
