Gooey Vegan Brownies

December 9, 2019 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

I have quite a few brownie recipes on here but I realised that I have no recipe up for plain brownies as I’ve only ever uploaded pictures when I added flavours like gingerbread or chilli or orange. I actually added some doTERRA peppermint to these! Because I just love it and it’s coming up to…

Gooey Chocolate Orange Brownies

February 5, 2019 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Following on from my Chocolate Orange Coconut Bites last week, I’m on a bit of a chocolate orange rampage at the moment! The flavours just go so well together, just ask Terry and Dawn French! You can use orange peel in this, or you could just use the wild orange essential oil. I used doTERRA…

Gingerbread Brownies

November 30, 2017 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

‘Tis the season to eat gingerbread! I do love incorporating these warming, seasonal flavours into my baking and cooking at this time of year. All I’ve done here is amend my original brownie recipe to incorporate these gingerbread-y flavours and it really works. I’m going to attempt to make healthy gingerbread men at some point…

Vegan Chocolate Frosted Brownies

August 30, 2017 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Is there anything more satisfying than an indulgent chocolate brownie? How about when you know that said brownie is free of refined sugar, gluten, wheat, grains, dairy, eggs, soya and preservatives? Sound good? How about if I tell you that they are SUPER easy to make? Sold? Great! Get baking! Surprising though it may sound,…

Puffed Rice Rocky Road Brownies

June 9, 2017 by theorganicspoon 1 Comment

I wanted to make some yummy treats for my friend who has just had a baby, because breastfeeding mamas need fuel (and chocolate!) and I decided to try and make a healthier version of Rocky Roads. Daniel used to make the yummiest Rocky Roads whenever we had people over back in the days when we…

Easiest Yummiest Healthiest Brownies

March 7, 2017 by theorganicspoon 1 Comment

Thanks to my friend Emma at Mrs Hollingsworth’s for the inspiration for these yummy brownies. These may become a staple when needing to bake something that’s quick and easy with very few ingredients. They’re actually great for baby led weaning as all natural ingredients and a wonderful (albeit messy!) texture that babies will love. I’d…

Paleo Brownies

June 6, 2015 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

These brownies are gluten- and grain-free, and by using stevia and only a small amount of honey to sweeten they are very low in carbs too. The use of almonds, flax, egg and avo means that they’re a decent source of protein; and the coconut oil, along with the flax, is great for controlling cholesterol….
