Fudgy, rich, and irresistibly chocolatey—these Easy Vegan Brownies are your go-to solution when a sweet craving strikes. Made with wholesome, plant-based ingredients and no complicated steps, they deliver everything you love about classic brownies but without the dairy or eggs. Whether you’re already living the vegan lifestyle or just trying something new, these brownies are a crowd-pleaser even non-vegans will devour.


Perfect for weeknight treats, lunchbox surprises, or a dessert table centerpiece, they come together in one bowl and bake into thick, chewy perfection. With a crackly top and moist center, each bite offers chocolate bliss that feels utterly indulgent while being 100% guilt-free.
What Makes These Vegan Brownies So Good?
It’s all about the balance—a little cocoa, a lot of dark chocolate, and the magic of flax eggs and plant milk. They’re not just “good for vegan”; they’re good, period. You won’t miss the butter or eggs thanks to coconut oil and almond milk that keep them super moist and rich.
Ingredients for the Easy Vegan Brownies
All-Purpose Flour – The base structure that holds all the gooey goodness together.
Cocoa Powder – Adds depth and richness to the chocolate flavor.
Granulated Sugar – Sweetens the brownies and contributes to that shiny top.
Brown Sugar – Gives a subtle molasses flavor and adds extra moisture.
Flaxseed Meal + Water – Acts as the vegan substitute for eggs.
Coconut Oil – Adds richness and helps achieve a fudgy texture.
Unsweetened Almond Milk – Blends the batter and keeps it dairy-free.
Vanilla Extract – Boosts flavor with warm, aromatic notes.
Dark Chocolate Chips – Melt into the batter and give gooey pockets of chocolate.
Baking Powder + Salt – Lifts the texture slightly and balances the sweetness.
How To Make the Easy Vegan Brownies
Step 1: Prep Your Pan and Flax Eggs
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. In a small bowl, mix flaxseed meal and water, then let it sit for 5 minutes to gel.
Step 2: Combine Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, flax eggs, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix.
Step 4: Fold in the Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in dark chocolate chips to make sure every bite is decadent.
Step 5: Bake and Cool
Spread the batter evenly in your prepared pan. Bake for 28–32 minutes or until the center is set and a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let them cool before slicing.

How to Serve and Store Vegan Brownies
Serve your vegan brownies slightly warm for ultimate melt-in-your-mouth moments or chill them in the fridge for an extra dense, chewy bite. They make a perfect lunchbox snack, coffee companion, or dessert with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream.
To store, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. You can even freeze individual squares for up to 2 months—just thaw and enjoy.
