Brownies no longer have to be empty calories!
These vegan black bean brownies are amazing:) I was skeptical about this baking hack. How can beans substitute flour in a brownie…I mean come on! So I made this for my daughter, and she nearly ate the entire tray…she had no idea they were made with black beans. Neither did my husband. They were everything you want your brownie to be. It was moist, decadent, fudgy and oh so chocolatey.
This recipe is:
- Easy
- Healthy
- Gluten Free
- Vegan
- High Protein
I was watching my new favorite cooking show on Youtube Mythical Kitchen. They are doing this group of videos specific to quarantine hacks in the kitchen. This week was bean hacks. So this was my inspiration, and boy am I glad I tuned in . I will never make regular brownies again.
This recipe is the perfect one bowl recipe. You literally place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend until it is smooth.
Yup it is that easy!
These are the perfect brownie. I dare you to make them for you family and see if they can tell the difference!
