No Bake Chocolate Brownies | Lorraine Pascale


[Music]
hey guys I’m around for scale and I’m
going to share with you today the most
beautiful brownie recipe is vegan it’s
refined sugar-free and it’s gluten free
and it has hidden ingredient in it
carrot weird I know but it really really
tastes good
now this is a fabulous thing to make say
if you’re going for the office little
gift for people in the office have it in
your fridge as a naughty but healthier
snack and great for the kiddies too so
let’s get started so you start off with
a food processor you really do need a
food processor for this because a lot of
sort of blitzing and and making stuff
into powder and I’ve got 30 grams of
oats these are gluten free oats pop
these in and then 260 grams of dates all
the stones are out already
these dates give you a wonderful
sweetness and they are still a sugar but
they are not a refined sugar so they’re
a little bit better for you so I’m going
to blitz this all together and it’s
incredibly noisy
[Applause]
really nice isn’t it okay so I’m looking
for a finer mixture if you look here
it’s still kind of a humble and big so
more blitzing right now for just so you
can see it’s gone into a kind of mush
and that mush is what you’re looking for
pop that back in then I’ve got a
tablespoon of water so I’ve got the oats
and the dates in there and then carrots
just snap the carrots in the carrot it’s
not only give you all that vitamin A but
they give a wonderful moisture to these
brownies and extra sweetness so I want
to blitz this again go to do it in
stages I tried to bang all in at once
and when I was testing the recipe and it
didn’t work so you have to kind of do it
bit by bit so it all mixes in nicely
[Music]
see it’s gone like this kind of now
orange mush
like that and it’s adding all that
beautiful moisture and extra flavor to
your brownies now in go 60 grams of
ground almonds okay and then I’m using
cashew nuts but you can use macadamia
nuts almonds hazelnuts doing whatever
your favorite nut is macadamia nuts do
have a lot of fat in so I probably use
about 40 grams less but cashews are my
favorite nut so they’re going in along
with 60 grams of cocoa powder and we
blitz again
[Music]
and it was like going around really
really quickly and when it starts the
kind of chug around chug around the food
processor that means that you are pretty
much there and you’ve got wonderful
chunks of the cashew nuts in there
pecans are really good too
I’m putting nuts in to give like extra
texture and they also give the element
of fat that you usually have from say
butter or oil so that is ready so good
movie is so good my daughter and I told
her that these had carrots in it she
didn’t believe it she said they taste
too good to have carrots in so when
you’re making conventional brownies
obviously at this stage they go into the
oven but these go into the freezer so it
makes them extra special and really easy
you don’t have to turn the oven on to
make them scrape it all into the line
tin and this is a 20 by 20 centimeter
square tin and I lined it with baking
parchment and then sprayed it with
lightest spray of oil and then you kind
of got to squidge it down flat like that
I’ve got this palette knife which is one
of my favorite implements to squidge it
down and if you find that it keeps
sticking to the palette knife because it
is a lovely gooey sticky mixture just
run it under the tap like that and then
you’ll be able to move it around more
easily they go that’s lovely and smooth
there’s a nice amount of mixture on the
knife for me to have later and I’ll just
put this in the freezer for about
minimum laughs I’d say 15 and a maximum
of two hours hi guys so here are the
brownies there are nice and firm they’ve
been in the freezer for about 30 minutes
and now I’m just going to cut them up
pop the
like that peel down the edges and then
I’m going to cut them into 16 little
squares because they’re actually quite
rich which we love so it’s a kind of
fudgy spongy texture it’s not really
really rock solid it’s nice and easy to
cut if you’ve got a nice sharp knife try
to get it nice and even and then I like
to add a splash of color to the brownies
you can put toasted coconut or some
pomegranates I’ve got some pomegranates
here lovely deep red all these goji
berries these magical mystical new
berries that everyone was talking about
packed with antioxidants and all
goodness so I’m going to put some of
those on top of each brownie just to
give a splash of color or you can just
have them playing over takes your fancy
and you do need to store these in the
fridge because as they warm up they do
get very very soft as is the nature of
raw desserts so let’s pop these on a
plate I’ll move that up there so there
are my gluten-free refined sugar-free
raw vegan brownies and they have bags of
flavor
