Ingredients Gluten Free Brownies Recipe
- Unsalted Butter: Makes these brownies rich and tender. For a dairy-free option, use Smart Balance butter.
- Sugar: I used a combination of granulated white sugar and brown sugar to create moist and sweet brownies.
- Eggs: Help give the brownies structure.
- Pure Vanilla Extract: Enhances the sweetness of the brownies.
- Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour with Xanthan Gum: I like Pillsbury gluten-free. Not all gluten-free flours are created equal. You may experience different baking results depending on the gluten-free flour blend you choose.
- Cocoa Powder: Adds rich chocolate flavor to the brownies.
- Baking Soda: Helps the brownies rise so they aren’t too dense.
- Salt: Enhances the chocolate flavor of the brownies.
Tips and Suggestions Gluten Free Brownies Recipe
- So make sure to check the ingredients of your gluten-free flour and not to add any extra xanthan gum to your flour if it already includes it. If you do, you will get gummy brownies!
- The best way to measure gluten-free flour is the “spoon & level” method. Using a spoon, scoop the flour into the measuring cup. After you’ve spooned the flour into the measuring cup, use the back of a knife to level off the top of the measuring cup.
Should I Use A Metal Or Glass Pan?
I like to bake brownies in a glass pan. Glass pans provide better heat distribution, which leads to more evenly baked brownies. Metal pans tend to produce a firm, but chewy brownie. Metal pans also heat up quickly and you will have to watch your brownies to keep them from over-baking.
Storage Instructions
Store leftover gluten-free brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can freeze the brownies once they are completely cooled. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or foil and place them in a freezer bag to store for up to 3 months. When ready to serve, thaw at room temperature for a few hours or in the refrigerator overnight.
