Hell Yeah It's Vegan!

I was going to add okara to my last recipe as the binder, which I’m sure would have worked great, but forgot and made these brownies instead.

Be still, my heart. They are INCREDIBLE. Seriously probably the best-tasting vegan brownie recipe I’ve encountered yet. Many thanks to Bryanna Clark Grogan for being such a dang genius. I know not everyone has the same idea about what a perfect brownie should be like, but this is pretty close for me.

They’re not chewy or cakey, but incredibly decadent, moist, and fudgy, with crackled tops; perfect for eating warm with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream. I added pecans because they belong in something this gooey and sweet. Make these and I promise you’ll think you’ve died and gone to heaven.

I’m sure you could get away with using blended tofu if you don’t have okara on hand. And if your okara is particularly wet, just cut the extra 1/4 cup of water. Mine are slightly underbaked. Sue me.

For those who don’t already know, October is the Vegan Month of Food. I’m participating this year along with over 300 other awesome bloggers, and as such, I’ll be posting a new recipe at least once every weekday this month. So check back regularly!
