        Instructions<\/h3>\n

        This recipe feels a little bit like a science experiment\u00a0at the beginning. However, if you can make cream of wheat from a box, you can make this no problem.<\/p>\n

        Prepare the Egg-Replacer:<\/strong><\/h4>\n
          \n
        1. Mix Flour & Water:<\/strong> In a small saucepan, use a whisk to stir together 1\/3 cup flour and 1 cup water. Heat the saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently and cooking until the mixture grows as thick as muffin batter (this isn’t super thick – it’s in between pancake batter and biscuit dough).<\/li>\n
        2. Let Mixture Cool: <\/strong>Remove pan from heat and use a rubber spatula to scrape the flour and water mixture into a large mixing bowl. Set aside and let it cool completely. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Mix the Brownie Batter:<\/h4>\n
            \n
          1. Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.\u00a0<\/li>\n
          2. In a medium-sized\u00a0mixing bowl, stir together the 2 cups of dry flour and baking powder.\u00a0<\/li>\n
          3. Now, grab the bowl of flour and water mixture that has been cooling.<\/strong> Add the sugar, salt, cocoa, melted butter, and vanilla to the flour and water mixture in the large bowl. Beat or stir together until smooth.\u00a0<\/li>\n
          4. Add the dry flour mixture to the large mixing bowl and stir together.\u00a0 <\/li>\n
          5. Stir in any optional ingredients.<\/li>\n
          6. Pour batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.\u00a0 <\/li>\n
          7. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Do not overbake.\u00a0 <\/li>\n
          8. Cool for 15-20 minutes, then cut into squares and serve. <\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n
            \n

            Notes<\/h3>\n
            \n

            *Honey-Sweetened Brownies<\/h4>\n

            You can substitute the sugar for 1 cup of honey or maple syrup. It will slightly change the taste and texture of the brownies, but it’s still good!<\/p>\n

            Fudgey Brownies:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

            If you prefer fudgier brownies, reduce the 2 cups flour to 1 1\/2 cups and the baking powder to 1 1\/2 teaspoons.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
