Eggless Vegan Orange Chocolate Nut Brownies

 

I was not planning on baking these, when I said I had to bake something immediately kids called out from upstairs Brownies please...., Kids..? Uhh.,  don't get confused they are teenage children but are always my little kids , anytime every time they love brownies especially my twins, eldest doesn't care for chocolates much (Just like me!), can you believe, I have completely stopped eating chocolates from past 2 months, I never used to eat chocolates before, coming here I had kind of got addicted to it, Now I have come back to my normal phase, my only favourite chocolate was snickers, yeah you know why I love nuts, I love to eat anything with nuts from chocolates, cakes  to Ice creams but everything in limits though.

The days are getting shorter, and its becoming colder, weather keeps changing all the time, sometimes I think cold is much better than rain,  the worst part is the daylight, it doesn't seem to wait for me at all.

Here comes my recipe, a quick brownie which is eggless and delicious.
