Black Bean Brownies

Total Time: 45 minutes • Yield: 9 – 12 brownies

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups black beans (1 15-oz can, drained and rinsed very well)
• 2 tbsp. cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup quick oats
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or honey
• 2 tbsp. sugar
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup to 2/3 cup chocolate chips (Not optional. Omit at your own risk)
• optional: more chips or add sprinkles for presentation

Directions:

Black Bean Brownies Recipe: Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine all ingredients except chips in a good food processor, and blend until completely smooth. Really blend well.  Stir in the chips, then pour into a greased 8×8 pan. Optional: sprinkle extra chocolate chips over the top. Cook the black bean brownies 15-18 minutes, then let cool at least 10 minutes before trying to cut. If they still look a bit undercooked, you can place them in the fridge overnight and they will firm up! Makes 9-12 brownies.
