Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup buckwheat flour
  • 3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup + 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or coconut oil melted, cooled slightly
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons peppermint extract
  • 3 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together buckwheat flour, Dutch-process cocoa powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, melt unsalted butter or coconut oil in the microwave or on the stovetop. Allow it to cool slightly.
  • Add granulated sugar, pure vanilla extract, and peppermint extract to the melted butter. Whisk until fully combined.
  • Add large eggs (at room temperature) to the mixture. Whisk until the eggs are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Gently fold in semi-sweet chocolate chips or desired mix-ins until evenly distributed.
  • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with your spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Always measure your flour correctly to avoid dense brownies.
  • For an even more fudgy texture, reduce the baking time by a couple of minutes.
  • If you prefer a more cake-like brownie, add an extra egg to the batter.
