How to make the Best Gluten Free Brownies Recipe
-
Adjust oven rack to middle position. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
-
Cover a 13×9-inch baking pan with two folded sheets of aluminum foil – the first sheet will go across one way and the second sheet should go the length of the over way and be perpendicular to the first sheet. Cut the foil long enough to hang over all edges by 3 inches. The foil will be used to lift the cooked brownies from the pan. Spray the foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
-
In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Whisk well.
-
Melt butter in a large heatproof bowl. Add chopped chocolate and stir until completely smooth and incorporated. If necessary, gently heat the chocolate/butter mixture, on HIGH, in 10-second increments, until chocolate is melted. Stir often.
-
When chocolate mixture is smooth, gradually whisk in the sugar. Add eggs, one-at-a-time until thoroughly combined. Add vanilla and whisk again.
-
Add flour mixture in three additions. Fold gently with a rubber spatula after each addition, until batter is smooth and fully incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips.
-
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, spreading it into the corners and smoothing the surface.
-
Bake 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
-
Transfer brownies to a cooling rack and cool to room temperature. Remove cooled brownies from the pan by lifting the foil overhang. Cut into 2-inch squares. Serve immediately or store, in an airtight container, at room temperature, up to 3 days.

Enjoy!

Do gluten-free brownies taste good?
Unfortunately for those that are sensitive to gluten, it can sometimes mean missing out on delicious baked goods, but with this recipe, you are in luck!
No one guessed that these were gluten free, in fact they went down such a storm that I have been ordered to make another batch immediately!
Can gluten-free brownies be frozen?
These brownies freeze really well, so make a huge batch for easy treats! Straight up freezing the brownies can affect their fudgy texture, so it’s best to either pop the individual brownies in ziplock bags, or you can wrap the whole baking sheet in plastic wrap, then foil and put in a large freezer bag.
Uneaten brownies (if there is such a thing!) can be stored in an air tight container for about 3 days.
Can you sub gluten flour for regular?
If gluten isn’t an issue for you (or the people you are feeding the brownies to!) you can sub in regular flour. The beauty of the gluten-free flour that I used is that it’s a 1:1 ratio to all purpose flour, so it’s an easy swap should you chose to make it. THANK YOU BOB’S RED MILL!!!
Top tips for making the Best Gluten Free Brownies Recipe
- Be sure to pre-heat your oven.
- Line your baking tray with foil that is longer than the tray so there is overhang for easy removal.
- Do be patient and let the brownies cool to room temperature before cutting them.

Hello! I love this recipe but I was wondering if it would be possible for swap the eggs for Flax eggs?? Or what the substitution for that would be. Thank you so much!
Hi Hannah, we have not tried using flax eggs, but we recommend egg replacer or 1/4 cup of applesauce for each egg!
Can you bake these in the individual brownie type pans?
I haven’t tried it but I imagine so!
How would I do this without using foil? I’ve read a lot about how aluminum is toxic especially when heated so I’m wondering if I can either do this without, or if you have any suggestions?
You can use parchment paper.
How much coco would I use instead chocolate pieces. Would I still put the chocolate chips in since I used coco?
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon butter, margarine or shortening for every 1 ounces of semi-sweet baking chocolate!
Hi! Would the sugar and butter be in addition to what’s already stated in the recipe (So, total sugar would be 3.25 cups + 2 tbsp, and butter would be 18 tbsp.)?
You’re going to use the amount listed in the recipe card, Kat!
Do you have an exact measurement for cocoa powder? Like 2/3 cup?
18 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 18 tablespoons sugar, and 18 tablespoon butter, margarine, or shortening. 18 tablespoons is equal to about 1.125 cups!
wouldn’t that be only 6 Tbsp butter if subbing cocoa powder?
I used cocoa powder instead of chopped chocolate and walnuts instead of chocolate chips. A guy friend of mine said they were “absolutely exquisite” and I agree!
That sounds yummy!!
Thank you for all of your tips and tricks. I felt like you were right in the kitchen with me and these came out beautifully! Definitely a winning dessert.
Thanks, Jen! They’re irresistible!
Those are the fudgiest brownies I have ever seen!
Thanks, Tanya! You have to try them!

I love that I can feel safe feedings these to my kids’ friends when they come over!
They are AMAZING.
WHOA! These brownies are absolutely incredible! Even non-gluten-free people loved them!
That makes me SO HAPPY!
