Gluten Free Brownies {3 Ways}

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure.

For the next 30 days, I’m using Living Now Gluten Free products instead of the normal brands I use. They sent me a ton of fun products to try, but the brownies were totally calling my name…I’ve made several batches of brownies in the last three days and I can’t wait to share my favorite brownie recipes with y’all.

Macaroon Brownies  {Gluten Free/Vegan}

These macaroon brownies are so amazing! I served them at a dinner party I had and they whole platter was devoured. No one even noticed that they weren’t traditional brownies. I just love it when I can fake out my father-in-law. It’s so fun to see the look on his face when he finds out.

In my years being gluten free, I’ve made just about every mix on the market and even my own from scratch…so when I tell you these are the best boxed gluten free brownies I really mean it! They bake up just like traditional brownies too. Before we get too far into this challenge, let me introduce you to NOW Foods. They provide natural products like personal care items, vitamins, sports nutrition, and a whole line of allergy friendly foods. In fact, their food products are free of the 8 major allergens and processed in a dedicated gluten free facility! I love that!

The brownie mix does call for eggs, but unlike grocery store varieties that say not to substitute the egg, NOW tells you right on the box how to substitute the egg. That makes this baker really REALLY happy!

Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies {Gluten Free/Vegan}

I made a couple other fun brownie recipes with my supply. Seriously….they were so good, I was almost sad that I had to share them! These are all so easy to make…I love that they use regular ingredients that I have in my pantry and that they are just as simple as regular boxed mixes. I honestly can’t wait for next week when I dive into their gluten free flour blend!

• 3/4 cup Coco Real, cream de coconut

Peanut Butter Brownies

• 4 tbls butter (soy-based or regular), melted
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• pinch of salt

Triple Layer Brownies

• 1 small jar of vegan marshmallow creme

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray an 8x8 baking pan with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
2. Prepare brownie mix according to package instructions and according to your allergy needs and add to prepared pan.

Macaroon Brownies

1. Combine coconut, Coco Real, and almond extract in a medium bowl and set aside.
2. Bake brownies as directed on the package, but just shy of being done (only about 30 minutes). Then remove from oven and top with coconut mixture. (Mixture will not completely cover the top of the brownies, but that's okay.)
3. Bake and additional 10-15 minutes or until brownies are fully set. Turn on broiler to high and let the coconut brown slightly for 1-2 minutes. Allow to cool completely before enjoying.

Peanut Butter Brownies

1. Combine peanut butter with the hot melted butter and stir until peanut butter begins to melt. Add in powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt and stir until well combined. Drop by tablespoons full onto prepared brownie mix. Using a knife, swirl the peanut butter mixture into the brownie batter.
2. Bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes or until brownies are fully set. Let cool completely before enjoying!

Triple Layer Brownies

1. Bake brownies according to package instructions and until fully done! Spread marshmallow cream over brownies immediately and bake 3 minutes more.
2. Meanwhile, melt chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second bursts, stirring often. Stir in peanut butter and puffed rice cereal and spread this mixture over marshmallow cream layer. Chill before serving to allow the layers to set.
