A Double Chocolate Skillet Brownie for one! Gluten-free, vegan, and allergy-free, get ready to bake up a delicious chocolatey dessert right in your cast iron skillet! You can’t have too many brownie recipes and one you can eat with a spoon? There’s always room for that!
One of the first recipes I knew I had to make when I got my baby cast iron skillet this past Christmas was the ever-drool-worthy skillet brownie! I guess I’m starting a Christmas tradition of getting a new addition to the cast iron family every year! (That’s one I want to keep!) But I chose to share this double chocolate skillet brownie today for one special reason that almost feels like Christmas. Can you guess?
We are free for the summer! Today is my last final for the semester and then I’ll be a free woman again! Gluten-free vegan brownie in a lil’ skillet is just the celebratory treat I need! The thing I loved most about baking this brownie in a cast iron skillet was just how easy it was to mix, pour, bake, and then grab a spoon and literally dive in! It seems like a metaphorical soft-baked chocolate pool to me! The skillet is the pool lining, the brownie is the water, the spoon is the diver, and YOU choose how fast you jump 😉
And why is it double chocolate? We added chocolate chips of course! Now the pool party can get started! Melty chocolate chip blobs all throughout the soft chocolate cake! When you eat this warm right out of the oven (topped with some rice whip, vegan ice cream, or marshmallow fluff) you will be floating on a dreamy raft in chocolate island paradise! I know I’m ready for a cocoa vacation!
I wish I had plans for a chocolate paradise vacation getaway this summer, but a skillet brownie is all I have in my future, at the moment! I’m not complaining (too much) though, since chocolate is one fantastic reward for a year of college drudgery! (Or maybe I’m just trying to make myself believe that!) Regardless, this is one delicious gluten-free cast iron skillet brownie to enjoy by yourself…or with a friend! There’s something even more cozy about sharing it with someone you love. Unless your one true love is chocolate. Then you may just want the entire 6.5 inch brownie yourself and that is 100% okay with me!

Seriously, don’t you want to dive in? It was hard to stop myself from face-planting in to this skillet brownie while I hurriedly took these shots! So what will I be doing tonight to celebrate the end of “College: Year 3”? Gluten-Free Vegan Double Chocolate Skillet Brownie, baby!
So tell me:
+ Do you have any big exciting summer plans? I never do, but I’d love to hear yours!

As I was saying, this looks super yummy and I am not vegan 🙂 And I have no idea what this pan is. I am such a failure as a cook 😀 🙂
I still think you’ll be able to pull this easy one off!
Can’t beat a skillet brownie!
No you can’t!
Wow! This looks so good! I’ve never used teff flour before. I’ll have to give it a try!

Can I get some of these brownies shipped to my home? They look finger-licking good 🙂
Love the write-up as well!
Haha, I’ll try 😉 Not sure it’ll make it!
I love looking at the ingredients in your recipes as there is always a surprise – this time it’s teff!
Just an essential flour for celiacs.

Just needed a nice “egg” replacer 🙂
YUM! Now I’m craving a big gooey brownie!!!
Tonight’s dessert then!
This is perfect for those times when I NEED something chocolaty.
Those times are daily 😉
Congrats on finishing year 3!! Definitely worth celebrating with a double chocolate brownie! Cast iron skillets are the best. Growing up, I always wondered why my mom didn’t own any other pans besides cast iron! I think we should all have one dedicated to dessert making! 🙂 I have big plans this summer! A trip to Spain and a move cross country to Arizona! I’ll need a big brownie after that!

Thank you!
I didn’t grow up with cast iron, but now….I’m making it the tradition of the family!
That will be one (exciting) whirlwind! Brownie it up!!
I love the idea of the skillet brownie! It’s not something I’ve tried before, but after seeing this, I’m so tempted to give it a go!
It looks just like a right size for me (and only me 😉 ).
Lovely work and thank you for sharing!
The magic of a personal-sized cast iron 😉
I’m pinning this. 🙂
I still haven’t made any kind of cake in my new skillet. Well, when I say new I mean I got it for Christmas, lol
But anyway, this could be the one! 🙂
Put that skillet to good use!!! (Extra birthday treating 😉 )
Yum, yum, yum! I’ve never heard of this type of flour. Will have to check it out next time I’m at the store.
Just a typical gluten-free flour favorite.
I’ve been meaning to try skillet brownies. This looks like a great recipe for a first try

You must, you must!
Talk about a flippin’ delicious way to celebrate summer! I hope many of these are in your future…I know I’m craving lots of brownies now!

Haha, yes! These make for a great celebratory treat!
Love that this brownie is made in a skillet!
Yup. Best cooking tool!
That skillet brownie looks crazy good. I need ice cream!!!
It is a great base for ice cream!
So true – there’s always room for one more brownie recipe – especially when it looks like this!
Yes. Always need more skillet goodies too!
This looks SO ridiculously amazing!!! I absolutely need to make these – I’m thinking today to have something to look forward to tonight after a long Monday, haha! 😉
So deserved for making it through a Monday!
This looks AMAZING!!! Perfect for a chocoholic like me
The best of us 😉
oh my gosh this looks delicious! definitely pinning to make later!!
Fantastic, thanks, Sarah!
I think I’d belly flop right into that!
Good call!
Oh my, that does sound like a chocolate pool of YUM. So good! I’m not usually a brownie fan, but I think I might have to (AKA definitely need to) convince my sister to try making this one day. You know, because she is a much more experienced baker than I am. It sounds too good to pass up!

Haha, you don’t need experience to make this easy recipe 😛
This looks right up my street! I am currently on a no sugar / starchy carb elimination diet for some health reasons, but will be making this once my three months is done!
This is sugar free 🙂 And teff isn’t a starchy carb 🙂
This looks crazy yummy! Can’t wait to spoil my husband with this recipe!
Hopefully he’ll spoil YOU!
This brownie looks so delicious and fudgy! I only have a couple of tiny cast iron pans which I use for photos only. I used to have a grill cast iron pan years ago but I could never figure out how to clean it properly and it rusted.
I love shooting cast iron. They always look so fun and rustic 😉
Just. Wow. Drool to the extreme!
