Ingredients

  • 2 15-ounce cans of black beans, rinsed and dried well
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup uncooked oats
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ cup agave syrup
  • ½ cup coconut oil melted
  • 4 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup dark or bittersweet chocolate chips ideally over 70% cacao

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 7- x 11-inch glass pan.
  • Add black beans, cocoa powder, oats, salt, agave syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and backing powder into the bowl of a food processor. 
  • Blend well for 5 minutes until all ingredients seamlessly combined. You should also pause and push down sides and restart a few times. After blended, use a spatula and fold in chocolate chips. 
  • Pour batter into a prepared pan. For a richer brownie, sprinkle mini chocolate chips along the top of the batter. Bake brownies at 350°F for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 8 to 10 minutes. Refrigerate for a firmer texture. Slice and serve.
