Hi Bold Bakers! We all know that there can be more than one path to a goal when it comes to baking! I’ve have made cakes in the microwave, breakfast tarts in the toaster oven, and now I’m sharing my recipe for making brownies on the stove top! Already have an account? You heard correctly: no oven needed for these brownies! My Simple Stovetop Brownies are deeply chocolaty and super moist thanks to the steam that cooks them. You will never think about brownies the same way again!
What Kind of Pan Do You Use for Stovetop Brownies?
I cooked my brownies in a traditional 8×8 inch square pan because I wanted them to look like classic brownies. If you don’t have a brownie pan or a large pan that you can set your tin inside to steam, you can use any size or shape dish as long as it will fit in your pot. Please factor in that if you use a smaller or larger dish your bake time will vary.
When Do You Know Stovetop Brownies Are Done?
The brownies steam when they’re covered with foil to keep water from getting into the brownies. They cook gently in the water bath and are done when they are firm around the edges and slightly wobbly in the center. They may appear to be underdone, but have no fear, the brownies set up as they cool and are incredibly moist!
What Other Ways Can You Make Brownies?
I pride myself on giving all you Bold Bakers options when it comes to how you make your favorite desserts. Brownies are one of my favorite desserts so I’ve tried to make them every which way. From my Best Ever Brownies to my Microwave Brownies, I have got you covered.
Can I Bake These Stovetop Brownies?
While this recipe really is all about giving the stove top a try, you can bake these at brownies at 350°C (180°C) in an 8×8 inch pan for about 35-40 minutes.
How Do I Store Stovetop Brownies?
These brownies will last for up to 4 days covered in cling wrap and stored at room temperature. They also freeze very well and can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 weeks. To defrost just remove from the freezer and allow to sit at room temperature until no longer frozen.
Tips and Tricks to Making Stovetop Brownies:
You can bake the brownies at 350°F (180°c) for roughly 40-45 minutes. Always start with room temperature eggs as they blend easily with the other ingredients. To bring your eggs to room temperature faster, place them in a bowl of hot water for about 15 minutes Use coconut or date sugar if you do not want to use brown sugar Replace hazelnuts with any other nut you like — or leave them out Whatever nuts you use, always toast nuts before adding them into things —this really develops the flavor and crunch Use white chocolate chips instead of regular Make these stovetop brownies in a casserole dish of your choice
