Flourless Brownie Recipe

Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 15-oz can of black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 TBS milk, any kind
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp ground coffee, optional
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a square baking pan (either 8×8 inches or 9×9 inches). I used an 8×8 inches pan.
  • Place all ingredients except for the chocolate chips into a food processor and blend.
  • When the batter looks like a thick mousse, empty all contents into a medium-sized bowl.
  • Fold chocolate chips into the batter.
  • Pour batter into greased pan and place in the oven. If you are using an 8×8 inches pan, bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when you pierce the brownies. If you are using a 9×9 inches pan, bake for about 30-35 minutes.
  • Let the brownies cool before cutting them into squares.

Notes

I have adapted the recipe for black bean brownies from Skinnytaste. Because I planned to add a mint chocolate ganache onto the brownies, I reduced the amount of sugar and chocolate chips in my version of the brownies.
  • Because I used an 8x8 inches pan, the brownies were thicker and more crumbly. I think they would have been easier to pick up and eat if I had used a 9x9 inches pan.
  • You can use any type of sugar that you want. I used coconut sugar only because I have been experimenting with it lately.
