Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
  • 2/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 baking tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

  • Step 2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until the sugars are fully incorporated.

  • Step 3

    Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, pumpkin pie spice, and ground cinnamon to the batter. Mix until all the dry ingredients are well combined.

  • Step 4

    Transfer half of the batter to a separate bowl. To one half, add the pumpkin puree and gently fold it in until the mixture is uniform.

  • Step 5

    To the other half, add the cocoa or cacao powder and mini chocolate chips. Pour in the almond milk and mix until the chocolatey batter is smooth and well combined.

  • Step 6

    Pour about 3/4 of the chocolate batter into the lined baking tin, spreading it evenly.

  • Step 7

    Next, pour the entire pumpkin batter over the chocolate layer in the tin.

  • Step 8

    Finally, pour the remaining chocolate batter over the pumpkin layer. Use a toothpick to create a marbled effect by gently swirling the batters together.

  • Step 9

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be cautious not to overbake to maintain the brownies' fudgy texture.

  • Step 10

    Remove from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for a short while. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out of the tin, then let them cool on a wire rack.

  • Step 11

    Once completely cooled, slice into approximately 12 brownies.
