I am going to make the carrob brownies tonight and use coconut milk instead of water. Also may add a Tblsp of molasses and a cup of black bean puree to fill in as eggs. I will have to increase dry ingredients, another half cup. Might add some flax seed for increase nutrition.

Sorry to say these are not tasty at all. They are stiff and do not smell so inviting, not even while baking. I know Carob is not chocolate but it is a great substitute if you want to avoid caffeine. To satisfy my craving since the brownies did not, I made a cup of carob drink (just like cocoa and it was delicious. Maybe there is something else I can amend the recipe with? I followed the instructions.
