5 Things I've Done In My @nuwave.now Bravo Toaster Oven & Air Fryer in the first few days I had it. Not pictured: made a pizza, reheated purchased pizza, made melty turkey and cheese sandwiches for the kids' lunch. Also not pictured: exactly how many times I've made french fries 😬 
.
I looooooove this thing. The fact that I can make biscuits on a week day morning without having to wait for the whole oven to heat up 👌 The fact that I can air fry in it. 🙌. And I haven't even explored all of the other features. But what I have done is use it every day!  Comment "Air Fry Me" below and I'll DM you a link + discount!

PCB ... You were really good to us. The weather ☀️ was phenomenal this week.  The water 🌊 and sand 🏖️ were incredible as always. The friends we made on the beach were top notch. We'll be back soon! @visit_pcb #MyPCB
I'll be sharing our favorite things to do with kids while in PCB soon, but, spoiler alert, one of the best things is to just play in the sand and water!

Vegan Brownie Recipe – A Back Story

My husband isn’t really a cake guy. He definitely prefers fresh baked cookies and brownies. So for his birthday this past July, we knew we’d be making brownies. The only problem is since this is 2020 … I couldn’t find the box mix we usually adapt (because if you’ve followed me long you know our oldest has severe food allergies). Naturally, because I’m… well me, I had to make them from scratch.  As it turns out, that much easier than expected AND the ingredients turned out to be all items I always keep on hand already! While the Sunbutter is there as a binder you do not taste it in the final product, though this family wouldn’t mind ? We love Sunbutter.  So let’s learn about this vegan brownie recipe.

A Note About My Recipe Style

Now, I LOVE adapting recipes to fit our family’s needs and even coming up with recipes on my own because a lot of times we can’t find boxed food that is safe and let’s just be honest, I hate that I can’t pronounce the ingredients in a lot of those things. BUT, I am *terrible* at taking process pictures. Usually because I have 1 or 2 kids up my butt, trying to pour ingredients and stir, and I’m almost always in a hurry. I love comments and love answering questions. Without further ado, here is my vegan brownie recipe.

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 22 minutes mins
Total Time 37 minutes mins
Course Dessert
Cuisine American
Servings 8

Equipment

  • Cast Iron Skillet
  • Microwave
  • 2 Medium Mixing Bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar I actually only used 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp REDMOND Real Salt
  • 1/2 cup Sunbutter natural, creamy
  • 2/3 cup plain or vanilla vegan yogurt soy, coconut, almond, etc
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 oz Enjoy Life semi-sweet dairy free chocolate chunks or morsels 5 oz to melt and 3 oz to mix in at the end. I omitted the extra 3 oz
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350F and oil a 10-inch, well-seasoned cast iron skillet. ⁣
  • Mix together the flour, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt in a mixing bowl.⁣
  • Separately, whisk together the sunbutter, yogurt, and vanilla.⁣
  • Melt 5 ounces of the non-dairy chocolate chunks or morsels with the coconut oil in the microwave or over a double boiler. (For microwave place in a glass bowl and do 20-30 second bursts stirring in between) ⁣
  • Add a few spoons of the sunbutter/yogurt/vanilla mix to the melted chocolate to temper it. Stir. Add a few more. Stir. Then add the rest and combine well. 6) Combine wet and dry ingredients. The batter will be very thick. ⁣
  • (Optional) Fold in the remaining 3 ounces chocolate chunks or morsels.⁣
  • Spread the batter into your skillet. Bake for 22 minutes, or until the top is set and the edges firm. ⁣
  • Remove the skillet brownie from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. ⁣

Notes

I used light brown sugar and since we don’t really eat things that are super sweet, I only did 1/3 cup sugar and everyone in the house including the kids devoured these.
DON’T FORGET – cast iron skillets get and stay hot. I know this seems obvious, but I’m the queen of cutting and burning myself in the kitchen. So I always bring it up.
This will be a very thick batter.  Don’t think you need to add liquid to thin it out to the consistency of a normal brownie batter.
Keyword brownies, chocolate, dessert, vegan


My oldest can’t have eggs, and baked treats are a REAL treat for her. Any time I make something like this she gets super excited (and it kind of makes my heart a little sad if I’m honest). You’d never know tasting it that this recipe is a VEGAN brownie recipe. What?!

These have way less sugar, no dairy, and no eggs. Are they really a treat? Eat 2.

Be sure to leave a comment or shoot me an email if you have questions or try this vegan brownie recipe! I’d love to hear about it!

xoxo,

Aleah

Homemade Quick Refrigerator Pickles

Hi!! I am a veteran software engineer with a love of photography, motherhood, and clean food, a touring musician’s wife, and mom to 2 little ladies ages 2 and 6. Our eldest daughter has severe food allergies which lead to a lot of research and even more cooking and recipe creation/adaption and sharing. I like to shoot with my amazing Canon 5D Mark iii, bake lots of bread, and tend my plant babies and indoor garden.

Here you’ll find information about severe food allergies, allergy friendly and vegan recipes, parenting topics, educational STEM information, technology reviews, and other home and lifestyle topics.

Just me?  I find it so calming to just watch jellyfish especially when you pair it with music. Every time we're at an aquarium I find myself filming them. 

I took this at the Greensboro Science Center @greensborosciencecenter I'll get around to making a highlight for it some time, but we've taken the girls twice now (last spring and this spring) and it's truly awesome. They have an aquarium inside, a theater, weather exhibit, dinosaurs!, a cool indoor playground, and other science experiments and exhibits, etc. This year they had a whole room dedicated to dogs and cats that was so cool!! And then outside is a zoo plus a huge playground for the kids. It's a whole day activity and our girls never wanted to leave.
