Brownie Pie
Delicious, whole grain brownie pie! This is a simple dessert and it is perfect for holiday meals when you have guests that don’t prefer nuts and fruit in their pie.
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust dough to fit an 8 or 9 inch pie pan
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup of pure cane sugar *
- 2 eggs + 1 egg separated
- 1 tsp vanilla *
- 3/4 cup of soft white wheat
- 3/4 cup of Dutch processed cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup of semi sweet or dark chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Melt butter. Add sugar and mix through. Once butter is no longer hot to the touch, add in 2 eggs plus 1 yolk. Reserve the white. Add vanilla. Mix well.
2. Add in flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk to combine. Your batter will be thick. Fold in chocolate chips.
3. Butter a pie pan and place your pie crust in it. Add your brownie batter. Let rest 10 minutes.
4. While your batter is resting, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake your brownie pie 40-45 minutes, or until set. I bake mine 40 minutes, because I like a softer pie.
Notes
*If you’re using regular granulated white sugar, add 1 more teaspoon of vanilla.
