- Serves:
-
6
ingredients
- 1 (15 ounce) can organic black beans or (15 ounce) can pinto beans
- 3 large eggs (or 2 jumbo eggs)
- 1⁄4 cup almond milk
- 2 -3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 drops liquid stevia (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon agave nectar (to taste)
- 2 -3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (I usually use 2 T., can also sub carob powder)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cinnamon or 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Pour beans into a colander and rinse very, very, very well.
- Place drained beans in the large cup of the NutriBullet (or use a blender or food processor).
- Add eggs, almond milk, vanilla and stevia.
- Whiz in NutriBullet, blender, etc. until beans are pureed and mixture is smoothly blended.
- Pour into a mixing bowl.
- Add dry ingredients, mix.
- Add agave, mix, taste and add more if desired.
- Pour into a greased 8 inch square baking pan.
- Bake about 18 to 20 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. (Adjust baking time if using a different size pan.
- Immediately place the pan in the freezer to cool quickly (about 10-15 minutes - do not try this with a glass baking pan - only metal is safe for this). Alternatively you can just let them cool in the pan on a rack, but this will take much longer.
- Cut into squares. Can refrigerate remaining brownies by covering them with plastic wrap.
