½ cup plant-based butter, melted (measure before melting)
½ cup coconut sugar
¼ cup real maple syrup
¼ cup Califia Farms Extra Creamy Oatmilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon peppermint extract
¾ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt

02
Let sit for at least 5 minutes (or more) while you gather your other ingredients.
03
Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a 9×9 or 8×8 baking pan with parchment, leaving little flaps on either end so you can lift out brownies later on. Spray with some olive oil and set aside.

Remove and let cool for about 15 minutes. Pull out using parchment paper flaps and place on plate to cool.
