Niamh @a_glutenfree_mummy very kindly shared this Gluten Free Brownie recipe which she adapted from Jamie Oliver’s Bloomin Brilliant Brownies recipe! You just know this is going to be a good one!
INGREDIENTS:
250 g unsalted butter
200 g good quality *dark chocolate, broken into pieces
80 g gluten free cocoa powder, sifted
65 g plain gluten free flour, sifted
1 tsp gluten free baking powder
360 g caster sugar
4 large eggs
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
2. Line a 25cm square baking tin with greaseproof paper.
3. In a large bowl over some simmering water, melt the butter and the chocolate and mix until smooth.
4. In a separate bowl, mix together the gluten free cocoa powder, gluten free flour, gluten free baking powder and caster sugar. Then, add this to the chocolate mixture. Stir together well.
5. Beat the eggs and mix in until you have a silky consistency.
6. Pour the brownie mix into the baking tray and place it in the oven for around 25 minutes. You don’t want to overcook them, so, unlike cakes, you don’t want a skewer to come out all clean. The brownies should be slightly springy on the outside but still gooey in the middle.
7. Allow to cool in the tray, then carefully transfer to a large chopping board and cut into 8 large/12 small squares.
