Fudgy Vegan and Gluten Free Pumpkin Brownies (Nut-Free)

it’s safe for me to bring back pumpkin, right? i sort of did an overkill at the beginning of fall and then took a glorious break, but you know what, i missed it! well, we’re back baby and better than ever with the best of the best- Fudgy Vegan and Gluten Free Pumpkin Brownies.

these brownies are a dream come true. want to know what makes them extra cool?

we use an ENTIRE can of organic pumpkin in the brownies, so no more canned pumpkin waste.

also, pumpkin is SO good for you and is a nutrient powerhouse, yay.

the batter is THIIIIIICK and i mean thick lol. warning, you will get an arm workout while mixing all of the ingredients together.

you could also add everything to a large food processor too, that would be an easier way to do things lol.

and then i did get a little (ok a lot) carried away with the toppings. if you’re trying to keep these on the low sugar side and healthier, they are amazing as is.

however, you know me and you know that chocolate is everything so, i added lots of chocolate chips to the top along with sunflower seed butter cups (just make sure they’re nut free).

the choices are endless though! you could leave the brownies plain and then end up frosting them once they’re cooled.

the flour used in this recipe is gluten free baking flour! love bob’s red mill for this by the way, but you could totally try other brands.

just try to use a gf flour that’s baking flour as opposed to all purpose but if all purpose is all you can find, that’s ok!
