Ingredients

  • 2 Eggs Large, Room temperature
  • ½ cup Oil
  • ¼ cup Water
  • 1 cup Carrots Finely grated
  • 1 box Brownie mix 16.3 oz box and 17.8 oz. box both worked well with this recipe. Anything in 18 oz. or larger size did not work well.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
  • ½ cup Chocolate chips Semisweet

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, add eggs, oil, water, grated carrots and mix everything together until smooth. 
  • Add brownie mix powder, cinnamon powder, chocolate chips and mix until just combined. Don't over-mix! The mixture will be thick. 
  • Pour the batter into a square pan (Dimensions: 9x9), lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with oil. Spread batter with a spatula.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out with a few sticky crumbs. I prefer my brownies slightly under-baked because they are more fudgy this way. Also, the residual heat of the pan continues to bake them as they cool.
  • Let it cool to room temperature. Then, cut slices and enjoy.

Notes

  • Try other flavors of chocolate chips like white, butterscotch, peanut butter e.t.c.
  • Replace regular sized chocolate chips with mini sized ones because they distribute more evenly in the batter.
  • All ingredients must be at room temperature so that everything blends together smoothly.
  • Do not over-bake or you will end up with dry brownies. 
  • Replace cinnamon powder with pumpkin pie spice or omit altogether, if you are not fond of it. 
  • Read additional tips and variations above.
  • Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
