Guinness Brownies

My first beer experience took place in Sapporo, Japan, and it wasn’t exactly a wonderful welcome into the alcoholic world. I was six years old, eating dinner with my family, and the only drinks on the menu were beer and soda. I loathe soda… and I asked for apple juice, which they sadly did not carry. So I ordered the next best thing: a pint of beer.
I still remember my mom’s face… and how she asked my dad with alarm, “They’re not really going to bring her a beer, are they??”
Guinness Brownies
Yes, they really did bring me a beer. They set the glass right down on the table in front of me, and my mother was completely horrified. As were the people at the next table.

Chocolate Guinness Brownies

  • 2 tbsp milk of choice (30g)
  • 1 cup Guinness (240g) (EDIT: I’ve just been informed that Guinness is technically not vegan. Vegans, feel free to use your favorite vegan stout in this recipe. Or 1 cup milk of choice may be substituted. If you’re gluten-free, use a gf beer.)
  • optional: 2 tbsp flaxmeal (highly recommended so that they don’t crumble) (11g)
  • 1/2 cup plus 3 tbsp olive oil or vegetable or coconut oil (110g)
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract (15g)
  • 1 cup spelt, all-purpose, or Bob’s gf flour (120g)

  • 1/4 tsp plus 1/8 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar or date sugar (115g)
  • only if using Bob’s flour, add 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
