Vegetable Tart by Pick Up Limes

 Here's a delicious savory pie that can be made ahead of time.  In order to make this gluten-free, I used a store bought Vegan and Gluten-Free crust from Trader Joe's (freezer section), and I skipped using breadcrumbs in the recipe.

Gluten-Free Vegan Brownies

 I can't remember where this recipe came from.  Please comment with the source if it looks familiar.


Thank you, B.C.


Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1/3 cup gluten-free cocoa powder
  • 3/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup aquafaba (whipped into a froth)
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste (from Sur La Table)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Whisk together dry ingredients.
  • If giving as gift, pour into jar and add gift tag. If making today, continue to step 4.
  • Add coconut oil and stir.
  • Add aquafaba and vanilla.
  • Stir. Mixture will be thick.
  • Equally divide into small ramekins.  Cook at 350 for 25 minutes.  Check for firmness at 20 minutes, then at 25 minutes.  If brownies are still jiggly in the middle, cook for an additional five minutes for a total of 30 or 35 minutes - depending on how gooey or cooked you like your brownies.  Remove ramekins from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.  Serve with your favorite vegan whipped topping or vegan ice cream.

 This was absolutely delicious!  I used equal parts gluten-free flour (make sure it is vegan) and cornstarch.
