Why we Love these Fudgy Double Chocolate Einkorn Flour Brownies

Last week I was at the store and decided to look at the back of a store bought brownie mix.  To my surprise, should I even be surprised anymore? The boxed brownies are loaded with ingredients like soybean oil, wheat starch and corn fructose corn syrup just to name a few.  So, I decided to head to my kitchen and create these delicious einkorn flour brownie recipe.

I used the simplest of ingredients including things like evaporated cane sugar, all purpose einkorn flour and organic Madagascar vanilla extract. This created the most delicious fudgy brownie recipe.  It was so good that I might recreate it to make cakey brownies so it covers both types of brownie lovers. I am excited I can still feed my family one of their favorite desserts, but without all of the junk.  There is nothing better than walking into the door and immediately smelling the homemade brownies scent lingering in the air.

Why einkorn flour?

If you have followed along for a while you know that we love using einkorn flour.  Jovial foods is our favorite brand of this to use and you can purchase it here or at a health foods store.  Sometimes it can be difficult to find at a regular grocery store. Einkorn flour is an ancient grain that is the only non hybridized wheat.  Modern wheat is highly processed, therefore einkorn flour can typically be digested much easier than regular wheat. It also has a higher protein, lower gluten content than regular all purpose flour which can help if you struggle from digestive issues. So it you have gluten sensitivities einkorn flour might be something you want to try.

Have You Heard of Evaporated Cane Sugar?

You know at Healthier Homemade we love finding the least processed ingredients and that is why recently I switched to evaporated cane sugar.  Evaporated cane sugar is cane sugar, but is not refined so more of the nutritional benefits stay in it.  Typically, sugar is bleached and this version is much less processed. It is important to rememb

er at the end of the day it is still sugar, but a healthier alternative.

Creating the Fudgy Double Chocolate Einkorn Flour Brownies

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Jovial einkorn flour
• 3/4 cup Dutch cocoa
• 1 cup evaporated cane sugar
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter melted
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 2 room temperature eggs
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Mixing it Together

To begin, grease an 8×8 baking dish.  I always line the bottom of my dish with a piece of parchment paper before greasing. Set the dish aside and be sure to preheat the oven to 350.

In a mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients- flour, cocoa, cane sugar, baking powder and salt with a whish.  After the dry ingredients are combined add in the wet ingredients.  First add in the  melted butter, egg and vanilla.  At this point switch to a stiff spatula or wooden spoon and mix it in well.  Add in the water and again blend well.  Finally, pour in the chocolate chips- we like to use the Nestle Simply because they don’t have any unwanted additives.

The final step is to pour the mixture into the baking dish and spread it out.  They might stick a bit to the parchment paper so at first you might have to hold one end of the parchment paper while you spread the batter out with the other hand using a spatula.  Once the einkorn brownies are spread out in the pan, place them in the oven for about 25 minutes.  Be sure to check them with a toothpick before removing.  If the toothpick comes out clean from the center they are ready to be taken out.

Let the batch of brownies cool completely before serving.  This can take upwards of an hour or more.

Easy Swaps

If you don’t have einkorn flour at home you can use this c

onversion.  For every 1 cup einkorn flour use 3/4 cup regular flour.  The ratio for evaporated sugar is the same, so just use regular cane sugar if that is all you have.  It is important if you use Dutch cocoa powder to use baking powder instead of baking soda because of the lack of acidity.  If you use baking soda they brownies will be too dense. If you love the taste of salty and sweet to make the brownies just a little bit more intense sprinkle some sea salt on top.  Now go on and try to make your favorite version of these delicious brownies!

 einkorn flour brownies bring a delightful twist to the classic fudgy treat that has long been a family favorite. These sweet and indulgent treats are the perfect way to satisfy your cravings while staying true to a healthier lifestyle.
