We've given classic, fudgy cocoa brownies a Mexican twist by replacing flour with our gluten-free Heirloom White Corn Masa Harina for rich corn flavor and a hint of additional sweetness, plus cinnamon for warming spice. These brownies come together very quickly in one bowl with pantry staples. Make them for a group and see if anyone can guess the ingredients that lend them their incredible depth of flavor!
One of our favorite ways to use up a bag of masa harina is by incorporating it into baked goods — it's an easy way to add some of the nutritional goodness of nixtamalized heirloom corn to your sweet treats, and retains moisture (perfect for those on Team Fudgy Brownie!).
