Ingredients

Dry ingredients 

  • 400g/2½ cups plain flour (use GF if required)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 200g vegan mini eggs (eg Doisy & Dam or use alternative)
  • 150g/¾ cup golden caster sugar
  • 170g/¾ cup soft light brown sugar
  • Pinch salt

Wet ingredients 

  • 250g/1 cup vegan butter (we used Naturli block, very slightly softened)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract or paste
  • 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed combined with 3 tbsp water, mixed in a bowl and set aside)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180ºC (fan)/350ºF/Gas Mark 4.
  2. Grease and line a deep square baking tray (20cm x 20cm).

Dry ingredients

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine thoroughly and set aside.

Wet ingredients

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all ingredients until creamy and soft.
  2. Spoon the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and combine. You’ll probably need to use your hands to form into a soft dough.
  3. Firmly and evenly press the dough into the lined baking tray.
  4. Place the tray in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Check after 15 minutes and if it is browning too quickly then cover it with tin foil and place back in the oven.
  5. Best served warm and gooey.

Did you know that the Vegan Recipe Club is run by Viva!, and that we are a charity?

We create vital resources to help educate everyone – vegan veterans, novices and the v-curious alike – about vegan food, health and nutrition; as well as the plight of farmed animals and the devastating environmental impact of farming.

Through this work we have helped thousands of people discover veganism; but we want to reach millions more! We rely entirely on donations as we don’t get any government funding. If you already support us, thank you from the bottom of our hearts, you are really making a difference! Please share our details with your friends and loved ones too, as every donation enables us to keep fighting for change.
