Oreo Brownies
This deliciously fudgy vegan Oreo brownie recipe comes with added protein thanks to the addition of chickpeas and is entirely plant-based. If you fancy adding a bit of extra crunch to your plant-based brownies, decorate the top with Lotus and Oreo biscuits for a properly tasty, crowd-pleasing treat. You can even swap out the flour and skip the biscuits to make this recipe gluten-free.
Don’t forget, The Big Lunch, the UK’s annual get-together for neighbours kicks off on June 5…. so get ready to tuck in. You’ll be a hit if you bring along a pan of these vegan brownies!

Method
- Pre-heat the oven to 160 degrees C fan
- Line an 8 inch square tin with baking paper
- Blitz the chickpeas (and the water they came in) in a food processor until smooth (you can do this by hand but it will take a lot more effort!)
- Add the margarine and sugar and beat together
- Cocoa, flour and baking powder, mix well
- Fold in the chocolates or biscuit pieces, leaving about 1/3 to sprinkle on
- Pour the mix into the lined tin and add the remaining biscuits/chocolates (or if using a spread add a tsp so it’ll end up approx. in the middle of each slice when cut),
- bake for 25 minutes
- Leave to cool completely in the tin before slicing
- Alternative option – double the mixture ingredients, use a rectangular cake tin/roasting tin and make half and half with two flavours!
