Ingredients
- 2 cups flour all-purpose
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp Lion's Mane mushroom powder
- 1 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, etc.)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- A handful of chopped walnuts (optional)
- Butter and flour for greasing the pan, or baking paper
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven reaches the right temperature by the time you're ready to bake. Grease a brownie pan (about 9x9 inches) with butter and lightly dust it with flour to prevent sticking. Alternatively, you can line it with baking paper for easy removal of the brownies after baking.
- In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups of flour, 2 tablespoons of cacao powder, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 2 tablespoons of Lion's Mane mushroom powder. Sifting helps to aerate the flour and remove any lumps, resulting in a lighter brownie texture. To the dry mix, add 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 large egg, 1 cup of plant-based milk, 1/2 cup of oil, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.
- Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can lead to tough brownies. If you're using chopped walnuts, fold them into the batter. This step is optional but adds a nice crunch to your brownies.
- Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes. The baking time might vary depending on your oven, so it's good to start checking around the 20-minute mark. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
- After baking, remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. This step is important as it allows the brownies to set and makes them easier to cut.
- Once cooled, cut the brownies into squares and serve. These Lion's Mane Mushroom Brownies are perfect as a unique dessert or a snack.
