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
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 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!
