Ingredients
- 2 cups black beans (cooked)
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 tsp Sea Salt
- 3/4 cup Cocoa Powder
- 1/4 cup Coconut Sugar
- 1/4 cup Raw Honey

- 100 g Dark Chocolate (chopped and divided)
- 1/4 cup Sliced Almonds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C and line a 8 x 8 baking dish with baking paper.
- Add the cooked black beans and eggs to a food processor. Turn it on and stream in the coconut oil. Let the food processor blend for about 60 seconds, or until the black beans are very smooth.
- Add vanilla, salt, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, honey and baking powder to the black bean batter. Blend until all incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl if needed.
- Add half of the chocolate to the brownie batter and pulse 5 or 6 times until it is mixed in.
- Transfer brownie batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate and the sliced almonds evenly over top of the brownies.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool completely before transferring to the fridge for at least 4 hours before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
