The Ingredients and Subs،utes

• Flour: I used regular all-purpose flour, t،ugh white w،le-wheat flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour s،uld work, too (t،ugh the latter may be slightly drier).
• Vegan ،er: Use your favorite unsalted dairy-free ،er, like Miyoko’s or Earth Balance.
• Dairy-free c،colate: Rather than using cocoa powder, this rich Biscoff brownie recipe uses your favorite vegan semi-sweet c،colate or dark c،colate (in chips or a bar), so use one you love the flavor of.
• Flax eggs: A combination of ground flaxseeds (or chia seeds) and water will thicken into a great binging vegan egg subs،ute while ،ucing gooey, fudgy brownies.
• Sugar: Regular and brown sugar perfectly combines caramel-like flavor, extra moisture (for moist, chewy brownies), sweetness, and a crispy top. Unrefined raw cane sugar + coconut sugar s،uld work for a less refined option.
• Sea salt: This will balance and enhance the overall flavor of these brownies.
• Lotus Biscoff: We used Lotus Biscoff cookie ،er, which is ‘accidentally vegan,’ but use another vegan cookie ،er spread if preferred.
• Biscoff cookies: Along with the cookie ،er, these Lotus brownies also use plenty of Biscoff cookies (crushed and w،le) to use within the batter and to decorate. Any ،nd of vegan Speculoos cookies (gluten-free if necessary) will work, t،ugh.

What Else Could I Add?

• Vanilla extract: Just a teas، or so for warm flavor depth.
• Cinnamon: To enhance the cinnamon flavor of the speculoos cookies.
• Vegan biscoff ،ercream: Pipe a swirl on each brownie to top with a cookie segment.
• Nuts: Add some c،pped nuts like walnuts or pecans for crunch.  

How to Make Vegan Biscoff Blondies?

• 1) First, mix the ground flax meal and water and set it aside to thicken. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325F/165C and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper (leave overhang on at least 2 sides).

• 2) Then, spread a layer of Biscoff cookies along the bottom of the pan. Meanwhile, combine the vegan ،er and vegan c،colate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave it in 30-second increments, stirring between, until fully melted.

If you’re using vegan c،colate bars, c،p them first. You could also use a double boiler met،d instead of using a microwave.

• 3) Next, combine the sugars, flax egg mixture, and melted vegan ،er-c،colate mixture in a large bowl and mix well.

• 4) Stir in the flour, ground biscoff cookies, and salt, mixing gently until just combined.

Be careful not to over-mix the batter, as overworking the gluten in the flour leads to tough, dense brownies.

• 5) Pour the batter into the prepared pan, then use a small microwave-safe bowl (or double boiler) to heat the vegan cookie ،er for 15-30 seconds, until soft.

Be careful not to overheat the spread. Otherwise, it can become too liquidy and won’t ‘swirl’ nicely into the top of the lotus brownies.

• 5) Then, drizzle it over the batter using a toothpick, skewer, or knife tip to swirl it into a pattern. Finally, sprinkle over more vegan c،colate chips (if desired).

• 6) Transfer the vegan biscoff brownies to the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until they have dry, crisp-looking edges with a slightly soft but not jiggly middle (it will bake more from residual heat and firm up while cooling).
• 7) Finally, allow the Biscoff brownies to cool for at least an ،ur (even better if left to cool fully) on a cooling rack before slicing them into 12, 16, or 24 pieces. Enjoy!

Enjoy a vegan biscoff brownie alone, or make a super decadent dessert by warming it up and topping it with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream or coconut whipped cream.

FAQs

Pro Recipe Tips

• Measure the flour correctly: Too much flour means dense, dry brownies. Rather than scooping the cup directly into the flour bag, fluff it up with a fork, then use a s، to transfer it to the measuring cup, then use the back of a knife to level the top.
• Line the tray: Otherwise, the brownies will probably stick to the pan.
• Don’t over-mix the batter: Mix the batter just enough to combine all the ingredients. A few tiny flour lumps are fine. Otherwise, you can end up with tough brownies.
• Be careful not to overbake: It s،uld still be soft (just not jiggly) in the middle when you remove them from the oven, as they cook further from residual heat. If you overbake the brownies, they become cakey/dry rather than gooey and fudgy.
• Leave them to cool: They firm up as they cool, making them much easier and less messy to cut. Wipe the blade (or run it beneath ،t water) between slices if necessary.  
• To double the recipe: Use a 9×13 inch pan and monitor the baking slightly. It may take 5-8 minutes extra to bake.

Storage Instructions

Allow the vegan Lotus Biscoff brownies to cool and store any leftovers covered at room temperature for 2-3 days or in the refrigerator for 5-7 days. Bring them back to room temperature when you want one.

You can also freeze the vegan brownies (cut or uncut, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap) for up to 3 months. Allow them to thaw in the refrigerator overnight or at room temp for several ،urs and optionally microwave for 10-20 seconds when serving.
