I found this recipe in good housekeeping website (http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/recipefinder/healthy-makeover-brownies-recipe?click=recipe_sr)
I took this recipe and modified a little bit. I don’t like strong cocoa taste or too much sugar. So I reduced the amount of sugar a little bit and replaced ¼ cup of cocoa powder with all-purpose flour. The brownies came out quite good. But I had to keep them in an air tight container. When I left them outside for a while, they became a little dry.
Here is how the brownie looks when cut:
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup vegetable oil spread or cooking oil
- 3 large egg whites
- About 10 walnuts chopped (optional)
- Butter of greasing baking pan
Method
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Butter a square (8 x 8 inch) baking pan
- Add vanilla extract to coffee powder/granules and let it dissolve
- Sift flour and combine cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder
- In a medium bowl whisk together oil, egg whites, sugar and coffee mixture until well mixed and smooth
- Blend in flour mixture and walnuts and mix well
- Spread in the prepared pan and bake for about 25 – 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean
- Cool pan for about 2 hours
- When cool cut brownies into squares
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar
- Makes about 16 brownies
