Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Substitute with coconut sugar for a lower glycemic index option.
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil Can be replaced with melted coconut oil or butter for enriched flavor.
  • 3 large Eggs Substitute with flax eggs to make the brownies vegan-friendly.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla is preferred.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Gluten-free flour or almond flour can be swapped in easily.

  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt Regular salt works too.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt.
  4. Gently mix the wet ingredients into the dry, and fold in rhubarb, dark chocolate chips, and nuts if desired.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Let the brownies cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board and slice.
