Hemp products are growing more and more popular in recent years, especially in the nutrition community. However, in spite of being marketed as a superfood, many people still have concerns because it is a member of the cannabis family. The fact is that hemp is completely legal to consume in the United States and has been proven to have a number of great health benefits, especially hemp brownie mix.
Baking Hemp Brownies
Hemp brownie mix is made up of just a few simple ingredients, including natural raw sugar, whole wheat flour, cocoa, hemp powder, cornflour, baking powder, and salt. When you use hemp brownie mix, you can bake your delicious brownies in the oven or in the microwave.
To bake hemp brownies in the microwave, simply whisk together the hemp brownie mix, 1/3 cup of oil, and 1/3 cup of milk or water until there are no lumps remaining. For a basic brownie texture use water, but if you desire a more fudge-like texture you will want to use milk to make your hemp brownies.
Next, pour the batter into a six-inch square microwave-safe pan and spread it out evenly. Put it in the microwave on the highest setting for three minutes. After the brownies are cooked, you will want to let them cool for at least 15 minutes before you cut them.
To bake hemp brownies in the oven, start by preheating the oven to 180°C. Mix and whisk all of the ingredients just as you would with the microwave method. After spreading evenly into an oven-safe pan, bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Your brownies are done when you can insert a toothpick into them and it comes out clean. Again, let the brownies cool for 15 minutes prior to cutting.
