Fudgy, rich and packed with protein.
These brownies are everything a brownie should be. Dense, chocolatey and properly gooey in the middle, with over 35g of protein per serving thanks to a generous helping of Free Soul Chocolate Protein.
Let them cool completely before you cut them. It's the hardest part of the whole recipe but it's the difference between neat, clean squares and a tray of delicious rubble. Serve them as they are or warm them up with a scoop of vegan ice cream.

Ingredients
220g cocoa powder
220g Free Soul Vegan Protein Powder (Chocolate)
440g oat flour
240g coconut sugar
4 ‘flax eggs’ (created by mixing 2 tbsp ground flaxseed with 6 tbsp water, let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it thickens).
0.5 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
300g vegan chocolate (chopped or chips)
4 cup almond milk
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients - your cocoa powder, Protein Blend, plain flour, sugar and salt.
3. Then, add in eggs, vanilla extract and almond milk slowly, mixing until smooth.
4. Fold in your chopped chocolate.
5. Following this, pour the batter into a lined baking tray.
6. Bake for 25 minutes (If you’re looking for that ‘melting-in-the-middle’ texture, ensure they’re taken out on time as they continue to cook slightly as they cool).
7. Once cooled, sliced up and enjoy the gooey-goodness!
