Stove Top Brownies
I never thought that my stove top brownies could be a game changer for me as it's super chewy and incredibly soft and moist from inside.
I have tried brownies in oven, microwave and even in sandwich toaster but it was first time when I cook on stove top and the result was amazing. So let's share with you guys to make brownies in your pan without oven. You can say, it's a cooking hack that can turn your stove top pan into a oven for baking. Isn't it amazing? I am excited to share so let's delve into it..
Recipe of brownies varies according to different tastes and textures made by different chefs. Normally people like chewy brownies with ice cream topping.
Here, I am making Eggless brownies with cocoa powder without using the oven (that's the exciting part). I will bake on the stove using a normal pan just putting the mould inside the pan over the stand. Very simple and easy method and keep you safe from lots of cleaning after baking.
Many people ask me, if is there any difference in the result so I would say. It will be the same brownies flavor and texture that you take out from the oven.
Setup For Stove Top
Well, I used non stick deep pan to make the oven for brownies. Place small stand at the middle of the pan to maintain a distance between bottom and brownies mould. You can use any steel rack or simple steel glass or whatever convenient and available to you to this hack. Add some water in pan to make heat with steam. It will help to puff the brownies without getting them dry. Then place the brownies baking pan/mould over the stand and cover the lid to pan to secure the heat and stem. Make sure to use the baking pan that can conveniently fix in pan.
