Delicious olive oil brownies topped with flaky sea salt, perfect for a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)
- Flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the olive oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. If using, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
- Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the top of the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cut into squares and enjoy!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, substitute half of the granulated sugar with brown sugar.
- Add chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for added texture and flavor.
