A bit of history

It is said that brownies originated in the United States, being a popular dessert for over a century. They have evolved over time, adapting to various diets and food preferences, such as vegan or sugar-free recipes. The vegan sugar-free brownie is a healthy alternative that preserves the intensity and richness of flavor without compromising healthy eating principles.

Preparation steps

1. Preparing the wet ingredients
In a large bowl, dissolve the Green Sugar sweetener in the soy milk. Make sure the milk is at room temperature to facilitate dissolution. Add the oil and vanilla extract, mixing well to obtain a homogeneous composition. These wet ingredients are essential for adding moisture and flavor to your brownie.

2. Mixing the dry ingredients
In another bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. The flour and cocoa should be sifted to avoid lumps. Mix the dry ingredients well to ensure they are uniform. The dark cocoa will give the brownie an intense and deep flavor, while the flour will add texture.

3. Combining the ingredients
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to gently mix until you achieve a homogeneous composition. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the final texture of the brownie. An overmixed batter can make the brownie dense instead of fluffy and airy.

4. Preparing the baking pan
Take a pan of approximately 29x23 cm and line it with baking paper. This will help prevent the brownie from sticking to the pan and will facilitate cutting later. Pour the mixture into the pan, leveling it with the spatula so that it is evenly distributed.

5. Adding the dried fruits
Sprinkle the mixed dried fruits over the mixture in the pan. They not only add a sweet flavor and interesting texture, but also contribute to nutrient intake. Dried fruits are an excellent source of antioxidants and vitamins.

6. Baking
Preheat the oven to 180°C (medium heat). Bake the brownie for about 30-35 minutes, starting with the first 10 minutes at medium heat, then reduce the temperature to low for the remaining time. It is important to do the toothpick test: if it comes out clean, your brownie is ready!

7. Cooling and serving
After baking, let the brownie cool completely in the pan. This step is crucial, as a warm brownie can be softer and crumble. Once cooled, cut it into squares and serve it with a warm tea or aromatic coffee. It is a versatile dessert that pairs perfectly with soy ice cream!

Tips and tricks

- Ingredient variations: You can add nuts, hazelnuts, or even dark chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
- For a more intense flavor: Experiment with adding a tablespoon of instant coffee to the batter to enhance the cocoa flavor.
- Alternative sweetener: If you don't have Green Sugar sweetener, you can use another natural sweetener like stevia or agave syrup, adjusting the amount to taste.
