These Gluten-Free Brownies are pure chocolatey bliss—rich, fudgy, and irresistibly moist! Made with simple, wholesome ingredients and no gluten in sight, they’re perfect for anyone craving a decadent treat without the wheat. Whether you’re gluten-sensitive or just love a good brownie, this easy recipe delivers creamy perfection in every bite—all in just minutes!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. The parchment overhang is your secret weapon—it eliminates the dreaded stuck-brownie syndrome that plagues even the most experienced bakers.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth (about 1.5-2 minutes total). The temperature shouldn't exceed 120°F—any hotter and your chocolate may seize, turning grainy instead of silky.
Add both sugars to the chocolate mixture and whisk until well combined. Let it cool for about 5 minutes, then add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. This gradual incorporation of eggs creates the signature crackly top that brownie enthusiasts crave.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, salt, and espresso powder (if using). Sifting these ingredients will eliminate any lumps—particularly important with gluten-free flour, which tends to clump more than conventional flour.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—stop when you no longer see dry flour streaks. Fold in nuts if using. The batter will be thicker than traditional brownie batter, which is exactly what you want for that perfect fudgy center.
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter). Remember that gluten-free brownies continue cooking slightly after removal from the oven, so it's better to slightly underbake than overbake.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out onto a cooling rack. For clean-cut squares, refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes before cutting. Use a hot knife (run under hot water and wipe dry) for the cleanest edges.
