How to Make Jessica Seinfeld Healthy Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted; 1 cup granulated sugar; 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 cup carrot puree; 1/4 cup spinach puree; and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (or a blend of all-purpose and whole wheat flour), 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. (Don't overbake!)
  7. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
