Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
1 cup all purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/3 cup butter (melted)
2/3 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Pre heat oven to 350F
  • Line a 9"x9" metal or glass baking pan with parchment paper so you can easily lift your brownies right out once they are cooled. (This is optional, but makes removing the brownies and cleaning way easier!)
  • In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the peanut butter, melted butter, white sugar and brown sugar together.
  • Slowly add the eggs, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder.
  • Slowly add the flour and baking powder mix to the peanut butter mixture and slowly mix or fold to combine all ingredients. DO NOT OVER MIX! Over mixing will make fluffy cake-like brownies.
  • Smooth the batter into the 9"x9" pan and bake for 30-35 minutes.
  • The brownies will feel soft or "raw" but will harden up a they cool. They will have a slightly wet look in the middle, but should be cooked. This will keep them chewy, moist, and yummy!

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour (spooned and leveled)
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup packed light-brown sugar

Tips:

  • Use good quality peanut butter for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have whole wheat flour, you can use all-purpose flour instead.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the brownies dry.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

These chewy whole wheat peanut butter brownies are a delicious and healthy snack or dessert. They're easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these brownies a try!
