Vegan Breakfast Blender Brownies {Oil-Free, Gluten-free}

Healthy vegan breakfast blender brownies  for breakfast on the go! Made with oats and carrots, fudgy brownies are oil-free, gluten-free, and just 132 calories per big brownie.

Begin Your Healthy Day with a Brownie

Your mornings are about to be amazing.

From this day forth, you can begin the day feeling virtuous, satisfied, and amped up on superfoods.

You’ll do it by eating a great big brownie. 

Power Ingredients for the Brownies

Moist, fudge-y, and freckled with chocolate chips, these super-brownies are made with frugal, nutritious, familiar ingredients you probably have already. Here are the key players:

• rolled oats
• carrots
• nuts or seeds (you can use what you prefer/have on hand)
• milk (nondairy, or dairy, if you prefer)
• unsweetened cocoa powder
• coconut palm sugar (or the sweetener you prefer)
• & salt, baking soda, a bit of vanilla, and a smattering of mini chocolate chips

Everything (except the chocolate chips) gets tossed into a blender, processed into a thick batter, then baked–with the chocolate chips sprinkled on top–for about 20 minutes.

Oh my goodness, the results are heavenly. Heavenly, I declare!

Yet each brownie is 100% breakfast-worthy nourishment. With only 132 calories. The brownies are also naturally vegan, gluten-free, flourless & oil-free.

Yes, please.

Use Carrots In Brownies for Sweetness & Fudginess

Carrots are my secret ingredient here, adding moisture (think fudge-y texture), but also natural sweetness, so that the added sugar is limited to 1/3 cup (divided between 9 servings). There’s something about getting vegetables first thing in the morning, too, that leads to standing taller and shining brighter!

Don’t skimp on the nuts and seeds, as they provide structure to the brownies (akin to eggs in traditional recipes), as well as protein, healthy oils, and flavor (moreover, it’s only 2 ounces, about 1/3 cup).  If you want to boost the flavor of the brownies further, toast the nuts/seeds before adding. It contributes a lot!

Add these to your collection of portable breakfast options, but if you have the time, sit down and savor every morsel. Because every morsel is noteworthy.

Make These for a Sweet Gift (Valentine’s or Other Special Day)

One last item to consider before you run to the kitchen to blend and bake…

Why not bake a batch of these brownies as a Valentine’s Day gift, especially for your loved ones and friends who are athletes/fitness buffs, trying to eat more healthfully in general, working hard to shed a few pounds, or observing Lent (the first day of Lent falls on Valentine’s Day this year!).

Spread the love with brownie batter ♥. 

Happy baking!
