Instructions
Preheat & Prep: Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together tahini, maple syrup, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together oat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Make the Batter: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms. If too thick, add 1-2 tbsp of plant-based milk.
Add Chocolate: Stir in the dark chocolate chunks, reserving some for topping.
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Sprinkle sesame seeds and the remaining chocolate chunks over the surface. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Cool & Serve: Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy!
