Preheat the oven to 350F and lightly grease an 8x8 baking dish.

In a medium-sized bowl, melt the coconut oil and chocolate chips in the microwave. Heat for about 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until fully melted.

Remove from microwave and stir in sugar. Once combined, add plant-based milk and vanilla and stir until combined.

Add remaining ingredients to the bowl and stir until just combined.

Transfer to prepared baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until baked through.

Once cooked, let cool completely before cutting into 9 equal pieces.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Coconut Oil Temperature Control 🌡️
Melt coconut oil to exactly 110-120°F before mixing to prevent cooking the plant-based milk and ensure a smooth, fudgy texture rather than a cakey one.
Cocoa Powder Blooming Technique 🍫
Whisk cocoa powder with hot plant-based milk for 30 seconds before adding other ingredients to fully hydrate the cocoa and intensify the chocolate flavor dramatically.
Avoid Overmixing for Fudgy Results ✨
Mix the batter only until ingredients are just combined—overmixing develops gluten and creates tough brownies instead of the desired soft, chewy texture.
Strategic Underbaking Timing ⏱️
Remove brownies when a toothpick inserted in the center shows a few moist crumbs (not clean), as they continue cooking while cooling and will be fudgy, not dry.
Dairy-Free Chocolate Chip Selection 🎯
Choose high-quality dairy-free chocolate chips with cocoa butter (not coconut oil-based) to prevent melting into the batter and maintain distinct chocolate pockets throughout.
