Black Bean Brownies with no flour

 

Incredible Flour-less Black Bean Brownies are soft, chocolatey and tasty , at last a low-fat, gluten-free brownie that's pretty damn good with no flour and no butter!

 

INGREDIENTS

1 14 oz canned low-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained

2 large eggs

1/2 cup cocoa powder

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon oil

1 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk, or dairy, skim

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground coffee or instant coffee

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, divided (Hershey's)

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees degrees F.

Grease a 9 x 9-inch square baking pan with a baking spray and a line of parchment paper, allowing a 2-inch overhang on both ends.

Mix the black beans, eggs, cocoa powder, sugar, oil, almond milk, balsamic, baking soda, baking powder and coffee in a food processor or blender and pour into a bowl. Fold in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips until mixed. In the prepared pan, pour the brownie batter. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips randomly over the surface of the brownies. Bake the brownies until the toothpick is clean, about 30 to 32 minutes. Enable the brownies to cool entirely until they are sliced into squares.
