The Best Vegan Brownies Recipe

I invented this recipe while I was still working in a Sweet City café back in Liberec, Czech Republic. I used to make cakes for the café and brownies were on my repertoire. First, I made classic brownies, but later I wanted something vegan as well. Ever since I started to make this one, it never crossed my mind to bake the original version again.

The batter is not super compact, but no worries – that’s exactly how it’s supposed to look. Spread it evenly in the prepared pan and push it to the corners.
