Dark Chocolate Beetroot BrowniesIngredients
- 140 g Plain Flour
- 80 g Dark Chocolate
- 1 item Large Cooked or Fresh Beetroot
- 75 g Unsalted Butter
- 100 g Caster Sugar
- 150 g Apple Puree
- 2 teaspoons unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
Instructions
Step 1
If you buy fresh beetroot, you have two options: 1. Peel it, boil it & puree it 2. Peel it, grate it & use it
Step 2
If you buy ready cooked beetroot, then you simply puree it in a food processor. You can also grate it but it’s messier.
Step 3
Once your beetroot is sorted, move onto the chocolate. Melt it over a pan of simmering water (bain-marie) altogether with the butter. When melted, add the caster sugar and mix until well blended (the sugar will not dissolve so don’t worry about this).
Step 4
Put the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix well. Pour in the apple puree, chocolate mix & pureed (or grated) beetroot. With a wooden spoon combine all the ingredients together.
Step 5
Pour into a square cake tin that has been lined with baking paper. Transfer into a preheated oven and bake at 190⁰C/375⁰F for 50 mins or until ready.
Step 6
Once ready, let it cool at room temperature, slice and serve!
Step 7
Enjoy!
