Tofu Carob Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix the spelt flour, carob powder, salt, and baking powder together in a large bowl.
• Stir the honey, brewed tea, cream, vegetable oil, and eggs together in a separate bowl. Add the honey mixture into the flour mixture, and stir to thoroughly combine; pour into an 8x11-inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out gummy rather than wet, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool before refrigerating overnight for best results.

Steps:

• Puree the tofu, non-dairy milk and oil until smooth and fluffy. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Use a fork to vigorously mix in the sugar and vanilla.
• Sift in flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking powder and salt.
• Use a spatula to mix batter until smooth. Transfer to an 8X8 greased baking pan and smooth out the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven at 325°F/150°C for 25 minutes or until set.
• Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

• Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over just-barely simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Mix the melted chocolate into the tofu mixture until well blended. Stir in flour mixture until thoroughly combined, about 3 minutes. Fold in the chocolate chips.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool before slicing into bars.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Generously oil and flour an 8-inch square cake pan. Set aside. 2. Place the tofu, maple syrup, vanilla, oil, and carob powder in a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside. 3. In another bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Add the pecans and mix well. 4. Add the flour mixture to the tofu mixture, and stir well to form a batter. Spread the batter into the prepared cake pan. 5. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean. Let cool at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving. For a Change . . . * To make chocolate brownies, use cocoa powder instead of carob. For an even "chocolatier" version, add 1/2 cup chocolate chips to the batter. * To turn this into a two-layer cake, double the recipe and bake the batter in two 8-inch cake pans. Place one layer on a platter, spread with frosting (the Maple Icing on page 276 is recommended), add the second layer, and top with more icing.
