Gluten Free Buckwheat Flour Brownies Food

ULTIMATE GLUTEN-FREE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Select the size batch and pan you're using from below. Preheat oven to 350°F and line the pan you're using with parchment paper.
• Sift together the cocoa powder, superfine blanched almond flour (or buckwheat flour for a nut-free version), sweet rice flour, espresso powder, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
• Place half of the chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate) in a medium to large mixing bowl. Brown the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, cooking until the butter foams and browns, but does not burn. Pour the browned butter over the chocolate chips into the mixing bowl. Let sit for 2-3 minutes then stir to melt the chocolate.
• Whisk in the light and dark brown sugars and vanilla.
• Whisk in the egg and mix well. Mixing the egg in well at this step will help create crackly tops.
• Whisk in the dry ingredients.
• Dump the brownie batter into the prepared pan, pressing it into an even layer. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips over the top and bake according to the pan size (see notes), until just set. When in doubt, best to err on the side of under-baking than over baking.
• Let cool for at least 30 minutes in the pan before slicing and serving.

GLUTEN-FREE BUCKWHEAT BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) on convection heat. Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
• Place chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Pour chocolate mixture into a large bowl and stir in sugar. Cool slightly, then beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Stir in vanilla extract.
• In a separate bowl, mix buckwheat flour, baking soda, and salt together. Add to chocolate mixture, stirring constantly to mix well. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is dry and edges have started to pull away from the sides of the pan, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely before slicing.

GLUTEN-FREE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter a 30 x 20cm non-stick tin with butter and line the base with non-stick baking parchment.
• Fill a small saucepan a third full with water, bring to a simmer and put a snug-fitting heatproof bowl on top of it. Add the butter and chocolate and gently melt over a low heat, stirring occasionally. Be careful not to let it catch and burn on the bottom. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
• Beat the eggs and sugar together using an electric whisk for 8-10 mins or until thick enough to leave a trail. Gently fold through the cooled melted chocolate and vanilla, followed by the flour, cocoa and salt. Finally, fold through the chocolate chunks. Pour the brownie batter into the lined tin, place in the centre of the oven and bake for 30-35 mins.
• Leave to cool a little in the tin before cutting into 12 squares.
