Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 100 gm Butter unsalted
- 50 gm Cocoa Powder unsweetened
- 80 gm All-Purpose Flour
- 170 gm Sugar packed, brown
- 15 gm Chia Seeds ground
- 1 tsp Salt
- 20 gm Sugar for dusting, optional, powdered
Wet Ingredients
Mix-ins
- 30 gm Walnuts chopped
Instructions
Prepare the Baking Pan
- Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan. Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C).
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, melt the unsalted butter completely. Whisk in the cocoa powder and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Add salt.
Add Dry Ingredients and Mix-ins
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and ground chia seeds. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
Bake the Brownies
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached (slightly fudgy).
Cool and Serve
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Brownies
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can lead to tough brownies. Mix until just combined.
- Check for doneness: A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs, not completely clean. This ensures a fudgy texture.
- Cool completely: Allowing the brownies to cool completely before cutting prevents them from crumbling.
- Get creative with mix-ins: Feel free to experiment with other mix-ins like chocolate chips, pecans, or dried cranberries.
