Method

1️⃣ Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C and line an 8 x 8 inch brownie tin with baking paper.

2️⃣ Mix the Wet Ingredients

Add the coconut yoghurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, vanilla extract and melted dark chocolate to a large bowl.

Whisk until smooth and well combined.

3️⃣ Add the Dry Ingredients

Add the Choc Peanut Butter Plant Protein, cocoa powder, plain flour, cornflour, baking soda and sea salt.

Fold everything together until just combined.

The batter should be thick but still spreadable. If it feels too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of plant milk.

4️⃣ Add the Choc Chips 🍫

Fold the dark chocolate chips through the brownie batter.

5️⃣ Add That PB Swirl 🥜

Transfer the batter to your prepared brownie tin and spread it out evenly.

Mix the peanut butter with the plant milk, then spoon it over the top and gently swirl it through the surface.

6️⃣ Bake

Bake for 24–27 minutes.

For that fudgy brownie texture, the centre should still look slightly underdone when you take the brownies out of the oven.

7️⃣ Cool & Slice

Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing. This helps them set while keeping that rich, fudgy centre.

Then slice them up and dig in, BBs. 🤎

When to Have Them

These brownies are made for when the chocolate cravings are very much calling.

Bake a batch for an easy plant based sweet treat, keep them on hand for afternoon snacking or warm one up when you need a little choc PB moment.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Nope. The maple syrup is completely optional. Add it if you prefer a little extra sweetness, or leave it out and let the Choc Peanut Butter Plant Protein do its thing.

  • You can experiment with other flavours, but Strawberries & Cream is the star here. It pairs perfectly with the Biscoff, white chocolate and freeze-dried strawberries - she's not giving up the spotlight that easily. 🍓

  • You can. Mix the base ingredients thoroughly in a bowl until a moist dough forms. A food processor simply makes it quicker and helps create a more even texture.

  • Keep your Strawberries & Cream Biscoff Cups in an airtight container in the freezer. This helps them stay firm and makes them an easy grab-and-go sweet treat.

  • Add an extra small drizzle of maple syrup or peanut butter until the mixture holds together firmly when pressed.

  • Rice malt syrup or honey both work well as substitutes.
