The best Vegan Fudge Brownies made with all vegan ingredients for a healthy and easy dessert! Forget those boxed brownie recipes and whip up a batch for a healthier dessert this weekend. These brownies are fudgy, gooey, and oozing with chocolate. If chocolate is your love language, you’re in for a huge treat!!
I think the cool kids would call these “slutty brownies”, but I am no in with the cool kidz these days so who am I to say *shrug*.
So we are going to just stick with calling them vegan fudge brownies, a pretty good alternative I think! They are vegan, cakey, can be made gluten-free, and have simple ingredients!
What I love about these is the texture. MAMA MIA! Idk how to describe it! It’s fudgy but also has a little cakey-ness to it! PERFECTION!
Whether you start your day off with a cup of coffee and one of these Vegan Fudge Brownies or end your day with a treat, I must remind you that brownies are ALWAYS a good idea. Can I get an AMEN!??

What You Need to Know!
How Do You Make Brownies Fudgy?
Something that can help the fudge factor of brownies is by folding in melted chocolate chips! Adding melted chocolate chips into a batter creates clumps of thick fudgy goodness once it’s baked. #DROOL
Can I Freeze These Brownies?
I’m not sure these brownies would hold up the BEST being frozen for a long time. If you do decide to freeze them, make sure they are completely cooled down before cutting them into pieces and wrapping them in plastic wrap or an airtight container.
Can These Brownies Be Grain-Free?
YES YES YES!! So when I made this I did half almond flour and half purpose flour for funsies! You can use all almond flour. However, I suggest starting slow and adding more in if until you see it get to a medium consistency: not thick and not watery.
