HFG Chocolate Brownie
This is a great, tasty treat. The apple puree provides a different take on what is often a decadent food item.
Servings: 16
Ingredients
- 1 cup apple purée or sauce unsweetened
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- ¾ cup self-raising flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- ¾ cup (70g) walnuts chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F) and lightly spray or oil a 20x20cm baking dish with oil.
- Place apple purée in a medium-sized bowl. Sift in cocoa, flour and baking soda. Add sugar and salt and mix until just combined. Do not over-mix as this will toughen the brownies. Gently fold in chocolate chips and walnuts. Transfer to prepared baking dish and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the centre feels set and fudgy when a skewer is inserted.
- Cool in dish for 5-10 minutes before turning out. Cool completely before slicing into squares. Dust with sifted icing sugar before serving if preferred.
Notes
From: King, Bronwen (Apr 2010) in: Healthy Food Guide
I served it for a Christmas Dinner at my brother and sister-in-law’s place with fresh strawberries and a scoop of Appleby Farms Vanilla Ice-Cream.
Although I’m not a qualified chef I do like to pretend I’m on Master Chef. I source the recipes from the stated source (not sauce) and make them taking the photo of the meal I produce for myself.
