These Crunchy Mint Chocolate Brownies are fluffy and fudgy with a perfect pop of mint chocolate in every bite. Using oat flour and HU Mint Chocolate, you’ll be surprised at just how easy it is to whip these up for family and friends.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 8 x 8 inch baking dish with parchment paper overlapping the sides. This will help remove the brownies from the pan when done baking.
Prep the chocolate but using a knife chop into small chunks. Optional, save the second half to sprinkle on top before baking.
Add the dry ingredients to a bowl. Whisk together oat flour, whey, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder and set aside.Melt the butter using either the stove top or microwave. Add all the wet ingredients to a bowl. Whisk together melted butter, eggs, coconut sugar and vanilla until well combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a spatula until well combined. Once combined the consistency should be thinner than cookies but not as thin as cake. Fold in the chocolate chunks and add the batter to the parchment lined pan.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-28 minutes until the top is done and a toothpick comes out relatively clean. I do like the toothpick to come out with a smidge of batter to make them extra fudgy. Personal preference.
Notes
Nutritional information is an estimate and will vary with substitutions.
This recipe has only been tested with Bob's Red Mill Whey Protein Powder which is a whey protein concentrate. The texture is similar to oat flour.
To lower the calories sub half the coconut sugar for brown sugar replacement. This will however cause a bit dryer brownie.
