• Add buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
• Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
• Allow brownies to cool before cutting into squares and serving.
