Black Bean Brownies

Total Time: 30 Minutes

Prep: 10 mins

Cook: 20 mins

Yield: 8-10 Servings

INGREDIENTS:

1 can black beans (15 oz can)
1/2 cup quick oats
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup honey, agave, or maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Start off by draining and rinsing the can of black beans very well. Then begin to add all the ingredients except for the chocolate chips (as those will be last) into a food processor or blender. Blend all the ingredients really well until you have a semi-smooth texture. Once everything in blended stir in the chocolate chips and pour batter into a greased 8×8 pan. (I prefer to lightly grease with coconut oil or vegetable oil). Place in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes. Remove pan from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into it.

If consistency is too soft you can place them in the fridge for a couple hours and they will firm up easily without having to bake longer.
