Barlean's Butter Flavored Coconut Oil is a favorite baking and cooking ingredient of mine. When Barlean's announced they were one of the #Chotoberfest2018 sponsors, it made my day! It was a no-brainer, Coconut Oil Brownies must be made! Coconut Oil is a great alternative to butter in many baking recipes! These chewy brownies are a family favorite and always requested to be made!

I use Barlean's Butter Flavored Coconut Oil, these are a couple of my published recipes:

Both recipes very popular with my family and favorites of many readers! Personally, these are two of my favorite chocolate treats!

Baking brownies with my kids have always been one of my favorite things to do with them! I've been baking with them so long, we have it down to a science. It is no secret, my youngest is a master baker! Dee helped develop this recipe and she makes these for her teammates all the time.

My beautiful niece is always ready to bake with me. She loves homemade brownies! I make many varieties of brownies. Coconut Oil Brownie Recipe is fabulous, easy, and so darn good! Easy to make with your kids, grandkids, nieces or the neighbor kids.

Tips for Baking with Kids:

When I have a few kids helping me, each one gets their own bowl to work with the ingredients. The wee ones take home their brownies too. Otherwise, I may eat them all, I don't have enough hours to walk of the deliciousness, ha! I have such a blast making them with the wee ones and the conversations we have, hilarious, I can write a book!

Frequently Asked Questions on Coconut Oil Brownies:

Can coconut oil be used instead of butter in baking and cooking?

Coconut oil can be used 1:1 for butter. If a recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of butter, 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or butter flavored coconut oil can be used.

Is Barlean's Butter Flavored Coconut Oil vegan?

Yup, its vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, paleo. A great substitute for many dietary restricted diets.

Can Coconut Oil Brownies be made ahead and frozen and eaten later?

Yes! These brownies freeze really well! I love using my Food Saver to freeze them. The Food Saver is just that, an awesome tool to keep food very well frozen. No freezer burn. Hint, make ahead of time and freeze for parties, bdays and Holidays. Time saver!

How do you make Homemade Brownies and send via the mail to family and friends?

Baked goods are one of the things I send to my son in California! Brownies are a favorite.
I do seal them using a food saver.
Then mail the homemade brownies to him in a cardboard box.
You can also use clear storage bags, ensure all the air out of the bags before sealing.
Mail to your family and wait for that phone call of thanks!

Can a combo of butter and coconut oil be used to make homemade brownies?

Absolutely. I experiment all the time when making coconut oil brownies. I get different textures of brownies with different combos of the "fat Ingredient" to bake brownies. Oil lets the chocolate flavor come through stronger. Butter aerates and caused the brownies to rise.

Why does this brownie recipe use unsweetened chocolate squares to make coconut oil brownies?

Using solid chocolate squares and melt it enables a chewier brownie while cocoa powder makes a more cake-like brownie! I want a chewier brownie with this recipe.

Homemade brownies are one of the tastiest snacks! Coconut Oil Brownies adds a flavor spin on brownies and they are so good with a cold glass of milk!

Tools You May Need to Make Fudgy Coconut Oil Brownies:

Brownie Pan: I love this brownie pan! A recent gift from a friend! It Sliced the brownies so well! Perfect portion sizes, who knew my messy self-has OCD when it comes to brownie wedges. Everyone says the brownies are better than the bakery but the slices look like they came from a bakery. SSShh, our secret! I double the recipe and send half to my son. You can freeze your second half for another time.

Food Saver: The Food Saver has become the key to savings for me as far as freezer meals and freezing food. I love this because the Food Saver seals in the flavors and there is no freezer burn. This food saver is for everyone who freezes a lot of meat, veggies, smoothies or does freezer meals! I have had no issues with food discoloring or freezer burn!

Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls: I collect mixing bowls, yes I know, lol! I love these because they not only have lids and a handle but the non-slip bottom are fantastic! A must have for me when mixing. [/dropshadowbox]

NOTES

Note 1: Chocolate is usually sold in bars with each square being 1 ounce

Note 2: Barlean's Butter Flavored Coconut Oil is used in this recipe.

The brownies can be kept well wrapped with plastic for a few days. Mine have never lasted for more than a day. So the actual number cannot be verified. I have frozen the brownies for about 4 months in smaller serving bags. I do use the food saver to freeze for amazing results. They defrost in the fridge. Feel free to warm them in the oven at 250 degrees for 10 minutes wrapped in foil.
