Description
Blueberry Brownies combine the rich, fudgy goodness of brownies with the sweet, tangy burst of fresh blueberries. The result is a decadent yet refreshing treat with a perfect balance of chocolate and fruit, ideal for any occasion.
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup fresh blueberries (plus a few extra for topping)
¼ cup milk or non-dairy milk (optional for added moisture)
Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and blueberries.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle a few extra blueberries on top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs (not wet batter).
- Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar (if desired) and serve.
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, fold them gently into the batter to prevent them from breaking apart.
For a vegan version, substitute dairy butter with plant-based butter and use a flax egg substitute.
Feel free to add nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
For an extra indulgent touch, swirl some cream cheese into the batter before baking.
