Healthy Black Bean Brownies…
~Healthy Black Bean Brownies ~
I got this recipe here, and it’s yummy! I was a little worried, but even the 2 picky eaters (I’m not one of them) liked them. They don’t taste like beans at all…crazy! Here’s the recipe…
Ingredients:
- 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 whole bananas
- ⅓ cup agave nectar
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup raw sugar (optional ~ I didn’t use)
- ¼ cup instant oats (I used whole rolled oats and put them in the food processor first)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease an 8x8” pan (I used a glass pie dish) and set aside. Combine all ingredients, except oats, in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth, scrapping sides as needed. Stir in the oats and pour batter into the pan. Bake approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing. Chef’s Note: if you find these brownies are too soft or too fudge-y, add another 1/4 cup oats or flour.
