- 1 can organic black beans, (rinsed and drained)
- 1/3 cup organic maple syrup (or more if you want sweeter brownies)
- 1 tbsp organic vanilla extract
- 1 tsp sea salt (or to your taste)
- 1 heaping tsp organic baking powder
- Part II:
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
- Part III:
- 1/4 cup organic quick cooking oats
- 1/4 cup organic dark chocolate chips (dairy free if you want)
- 1/3 cup reduced fat organic shredded unsweetened coconut
- Part IV:
- 1 egg white, whipped
- Part V:
- 1 handful organic dark chocolate chips
- 1 handful reduced fat organic shredded coconut
- Optional Vegan Frosting (Goes great spooned on top of brownies if eaten hot out of the oven)
- 1/3 of a ripe avocado
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 tsp organic vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp organic ground Cinnamon
- 1 tsp organic honey
- 1/4 cup Ghirardelli 100% cocoa
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- Preheat oven to 350 F.rnIn a medium sized bowl, blend all ingredients from "Part I" with a hand blender until very smooth. Black beans can be hard to get really smooth because they are small and evade the blade easily. Be sure to spend a few minutes blending. Taste. Adjust any ingredients to your taste.
- Blend in ingredients from "Part II".
- Stir in ingredients from "Part III" until well incorporated.
- Whip the egg white until very frothy or until you achieve soft peaks. Fold in egg white into the cocoa mixture delicately.
- Empty mixture into a square non-stick cake pan. Smooth out to the edges with a spoon. Top with ingredients from "Part V". Bake for roughly 30 minutes.
- How to Eat these little morsels:rnrnHot: for banana-tastic, souffle-like cakey browniesrnrnrnEat brownies hot out of the oven with frosting spooned on top. We had these a la mode (with a scoop of vanilla ice cream).rnrnCold: Refrigerating these overnight changes the taste and texture dramatically. They become intensely fudgey and loose their banana flavor entirely.
- Blend all ingredients in a small bowl until very smooth with a hand blender.
- TASTE! ADJUST ALL INGREDIENTS TO YOUR TASTE! Refrigerate until brownies are ready to eat.
