Description

These carrot-shaped vegan Easter brownies are a fun and festive treat perfect for springtime celebrations. Moist, chocolaty, and topped with orange-colored frosting and green tops, they’re a creative twist on classic brownies.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
  • 1 cup vegan butter (for frosting)
  • 2 cups powdered sugar (for frosting)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for frosting)
  • Orange food coloring
  • Green candy melts or green licorice strings (for carrot tops)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add melted coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
  4. Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before removing.
  8. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting by beating vegan butter until smooth, then add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until fluffy.
  9. Stir in orange food coloring until desired carrot shade is achieved.
  10. Cut the cooled brownies into triangles to resemble carrot shapes.
  11. Frost the brownies with the orange frosting.
  12. Insert green candy melts or licorice at the wide end of the triangles to resemble carrot tops.

Notes

  • Make sure brownies are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
  • Use a piping bag for a neater frosting application.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
