Cocoa and Apple Brownies without Butter

Today, Cocoa and Apple Brownies without Butter super delicious. It’s known that apple desserts are always the best, but I assure you that the almost moist texture of these brownies surpasses them all, I make them very often. With the same dough, I made cocoa apple cakes cooked in the apple which I must say were a hit. I made the Brownies for a very dear friend who particularly loves apple cakes, preferably soft and slightly spongy. These were indeed ideal. Naturally, if you don’t like cocoa desserts and prefer white ones, replace the cocoa with the same amount of flour and make a simple apple cake without butter. If you prefer butter in cakes, replace the sunflower seed oil with 60 g (2 oz) of butter.

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. My name is Francesca, a true native of Taranto. I love cooking desserts and traditional dishes, and my inspiration comes from the women in my family. Photography, for me, is about capturing the moment… in a shot, you hold your breath and then start again, savoring every little detail as you develop it. Why Ethra? She was the wife of Phalanthus, the founder of Taranto, the Spartan city. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all… there are already so many of you following me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
