Ingredients
  • 220g beetroot

  • 250g unsalted butter diced
  • 180g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), roughly chopped
  • 2 tsp orange zest finely grated
  • 250g rapadura sugar or light brown sugar
  • 3 extra-large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 cup wholemeal plain flour, sifted
  • 1/4 cup coca sifted

    Method
    Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Lightly grease and line a 20cm x 20cm square brownie tin with baking paper.

    Step 2

    Place beetroot in small saucepan covered in water, over a medium-high heat. Bring to boil and cook until tender.

    Step 3

    Drain, allow to cool, before removing skin and cutting into chunks. Place beetroot chunks in a food processor and puree until smooth.

    Step 4

    In a large mixing bowl, combine butter, chocolate, zest and sugar together over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir occasionally until mixture is melted and smooth. Add pureed beetroot, eggs, flour, cocoa, cinnamon, ginger and walnuts, stirring until combined.

    Step 5

    Pour mixture into prepared tin and bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until a skewer comes out of centre with moist crumbs.

    Step 6

    Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before cutting.
