TWD - Olive Oil Brownies



This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is Olive Oil Brownies. These brownies contain olive oil instead of butter as the key fat component. They are also flavoured with black pepper, and contain dried fruit. Instead of raisins, I used dried strawberries that I had randomly purchased with no particular use in mind.



The reviews from my fellow bakers on these brownies were mixed, but I liked them. They were not super squidgy, but they were fudgy, which suited me just fine. The dried strawberries baked up well and were a nice contrast to the chocolate.

To see what everyone else baked this week and what they thought of it, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.

Dried strawberries sound like an excellent choice for the fruit. Glad you enjoyed them.
