Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×9 square baking pan, or line it with parchment paper, leaving some over hanging on the sides for easy removal from the pan later.

Step 2

Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt to a medium sized bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Add the oil, sugar and vanilla extract to large mixing bowl and mix together until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined, but don’t over mix.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Step 7

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few crumbs.

Step 8

Allow brownies to cool completely, then use the overhanging parchment paper to remove the brownie from the pan. Cut into bars.

Step 9

Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature. Best if eaten within 5-7 days.
