Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F / 180°C and prepare a 7x7-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- Place peeled and cored apples, eggs, cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender.
- Blend the mixture until the brownie batter becomes completely smooth.
- Taste the batter and mix in maple syrup if additional sweetness is preferred.
- Transfer the batter to the lined pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Add sugar-free chocolate chips on top of the batter if using.
Baking
- Bake the brownies for 20–27 minutes until the center is mostly set, remains slightly soft, and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out with moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing so the texture can finish setting.
Chilling
- Refrigerate the brownies for 1–2 hours before serving if a denser fudgy texture is desired.
Notes
For the fudgiest texture, let the brownies cool completely before slicing.
