BROWNIES

 

Assemble these:

50ml veg oil

400g lentils (small half orange ones)

150gm cocoa powder

200gm brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

150gm flour

1 tablespoon vanilla extra

1 heaped teaspoon decaf coffee dissolved in 1 tbsp hot water

100gm minimum of dark choc, bashed into bits with a rolling pin (inside a bag or while still in the packet).

Macadamia nuts for the inside

Vegan marshmallows if you can find them, for the inside

1 tablespoon maple syrup

For the top:

Sliced almonds for on top

Sweet soy sauce and extra maple syrup

Do this:

Cook lentils till very soft, drain well, leave in pan to dry out a bit.

Stir in everything except the sliced almonds, sweet soy and leave some maple.

When REALLY well mixed, pour into a tray lined with greaseproof/baking paper.

Level out with the back of a spoon.

Sprinkle with flaked almonds, drizzle over sweet soy diagonally one way, then the maple syrup in the other direction.

Bake for 20 minutes, check, add a few minutes more if you like a little crusty action on top. 

Take out and leave to cool. 

When fully cooled, slice into small squares or rectangles with a bread knife.
