2 tsp baking powder
A pinch of salt
180g or 1 ¼ cup Divine Ginger and Orange Dark Chocolate, melted
¾ cup pumpkin puree

Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350*F and line a pan (approx. 8x11 inch) with parchment paper.
Step 2
Make the chia or flaxseed egg by stirring together the ground seeds with the water and leave to form a gel.

Prepare the pumpkin swirl by stirring together all the ingredients until smooth.
Step 4
Meanwhile, melt the chocolate and warm the milk, if necessary.
Step 5
Add the flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder and salt to a bowl and whisk well. Pour in the melted chocolate, pumpkin puree, milk and vanilla essence and whisk to combine.
Step 6
Pour into the dish and smooth over the top. Spoon the pumpkin swirl on top all over the brownie and use a blunt knife or small spoon to swirl the pumpkin mix through the brownie batter.
Step 7
Bake for 25-30 minutes until firm on top. Allow to cool before slicing into 18 brownies.
