Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Black beans (cooked or canned, rinsed and drained)
- 2 Large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted)
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.33 cup Rolled oats (certified gluten-free)
- 0.75 cup Honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
Place the black beans, eggs, coconut oil, cocoa powder, oats, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt into a blender or food processor.
Step 3
Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. The batter will be thick.
Step 4
Optional: Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula for a chocolatey boost.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges pull away from the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (a few sticky crumbs are fine).
Step 7
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 squares or your desired portion sizes.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy! Store leftover brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
