Gluten Free Black Bean Brownies Bites
We like to call these "breakfast brownies" because they are relatively healthy and they are high in protein! I'd call it a win-win!!
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 1 black beans, drained and rinsed (15 ounce can)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup coconut butter, melted (or you can use regular butter)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tsp vanilla
- pinch salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350. Spray a mini-muffin tin with cooking spray to make sure your brownies “release” easily.
- In the bowl of a food processor, add the beans and process until broken down a bit. Add melted coconut oil/butter and cocoa and process again. Add the sugar and process again; scrape down sides. Add eggs and vanilla and process again. Add chocolate chips and nuts and process one last time.
- Fill the muffin tins and bake for about 20 minutes…yup, that’s it!
Notes
You can also use a 9 x 13″ baking pan and spread the batter along the bottom (but I find these brownies are really fudgy so the smaller bite size is better).
