Desserts

These black bean brownies are everything you could possibly want—moist, rich and fudgy with big chocolate flavor. Black beans not only enhance the texture but also give these brownies a nutritional boost! Packed with protein, fiber and essential vitamins, black beans make this dessert satisfying.

Ingredients

1 (15-oz.) can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed
3 large eggs
¼ cup neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup cocoa powder
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon instant coffee granules
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Description

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-inch-square baking pan with cooking spray.
Place rinsed beans in a food processor; process until a mostly smooth, thick paste forms, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
Add 3 large eggs, ¼ cup oil, 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1 tablespoon vanilla; pulse until combined, about 5 pulses. Add ½ cup sugar, ¼ cup cocoa and ½ teaspoon each baking powder, coffee granules and salt; pulse until thoroughly combined, about 5 pulses.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, spreading into an even layer. Sprinkle ½ cup chocolate chips over the top.
Bake until the center is fully set and the edges just begin pulling away from the pan’s sides, 23 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack until room temperature, about 30 minutes, before cutting and serving.
