Black Bean Chocolate Chip Brownies
Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit with a rack in the lower third of the oven. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper.
- Prepare flax eggs by mixing 2 tbsp of ground flaxseed meal with 6 tbsp of hot water. Let it sit for a minute to become sticky.
- Drain and rinse black beans and puree in a food processer or blender along with flax eggs, vanilla extract, and canola oil.
- In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground coffee. Add the dry ingredients to the wets, then stir in chocolate chips.
- Pour in batter and sprinkle on more chocolate chips directly on top of the brownies. Bake on the lower rack for about 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Cool the brownies in the pan on a baking rack.
- Once the brownies are completely cool, lift the edges of the parchment paper and transfer the brownies to a cutting board. Use a sharp chef’s knife to cut the brownies into 16 squares.
