🥚 Pioneer Woman Beet Brownies Ingredients

  • Nonstick baking spray
  • 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, broken into pieces
  • 2 sticks (16 tablespoons) salted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup finely chopped beets, from 8 ounces of cooked beets (see Cook’s Note)
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts, chopped
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • Confectioners’ sugar, to serve

🎂 How To Make Pioneer Woman Beet Brownies

  1. Set the oven up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Apply nonstick baking spray to a baking pan that is 8 inches square.
  2. Spray it once more, and then line it with parchment overhanging the edges. This will make it easier to remove the brownies from the pan.
  3. Use a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler to melt the chocolate. Let’s sit for a moment to cool down.
  4. Use the paddle attachment on a stand mixer to cream the sugar and butter in a mixing bowl. Stir in the eggs.
  5. Whip the melted chocolate in with a slow-speed mixer. Combine the beets, walnuts, and vanilla extract.
  6. Combine the cocoa powder and flour in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Incorporate half of the flour into the batter and stir until just incorporated. Add the rest of the flour, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Place the batter into the prepared baking pan. Distribute it so that the surface is uniform.
  8. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow the brownies to completely cool.
  9. Remove the brownies from the pan by using the paper. Cut the brownies into 9 equal squares after removing the parchment paper. Sprinkle with a dusting of confectioners’ sugar.

💭 Recipe Tips

  • Don’t overmix: Incorporate the flour gently to avoid a tough texture.
  • Toast the walnuts: Toasting enhances their flavor, adding a delightful crunch to the brownies.
  • Ensure beets are finely chopped: This ensures even distribution throughout the brownie batter.
  • Cool completely before cutting: This helps the brownies set properly and makes for easier slicing.

Your beet brownies may crumble if overbaked, lacking moisture, or not properly cooled before cutting, leading to structural weakness.

Are beet brownies supposed to be jiggly?

Beet brownies may jiggle slightly when removed from the oven but should be set upon cooling; excessive jiggle indicates underbaking.
