Buttermilk Brownies 白脱牛奶布朗尼
Since I still have some leftover buttermilk from the blueberry crumble cake that I shared in my previous post, I didn’t hesitate to make this quick and easy buttermilk brownies. These buttermilk brownies are light, tender and soft and look pretty with a dust of icing sugar. You may frost with ganache cream for a richer chocolately texture. Great to serve these brownies warm or with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

Hi Ann
Is it possible to use half butter n half olive oil? I am trying to make a healthier version.
Hi Charlotte, Butter milk is consider healthy made from low fat milk or non fat milk. Is your choice of using half half of buttermilk and olive oil.
Hi Ann
I mean l will use the 120 ml butter milk. As for the 125g butter, l am wondering if l could use 65g butter n 60g olive oil instead. Will this affect the taste n texture of the brownie if l do so?
Hi Charlotte, No problem to use half of butter and olive oil. Taste wise, butter would be better.
Thank you for your prompt reply
