Best Black Bean Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Butter an 8-inch baking pan.
• Place the black beans, eggs, melted butter, cocoa powder, salt, vanilla, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth.
• Remove the blade and carefully stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Transfer mixture to the prepared pan.
• Bake the brownies for 30 to 35 minutes, or until just set in the center.
• Cool before cutting into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 9-inch square baking pan.
• In a blender, puree the beans with the oil. Add the eggs, cocoa, sugar, coffee, and vanilla. Melt half the chocolate chips and add to the blender. Blend on medium-high until smooth. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the blender and pulse until just incorporated. Stir in the remaining chocolate chips. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake until the surface looks somewhat matte around the edges and still a bit shiny in the middle, about 20 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before cutting and removing from the pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine all the dry ingredients.
• Drain a can of black beans and rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear. Return the black beans back to the can and fill with water. Puree the beans and water. Add the puree to the dry mix along with the vanilla and extra cup of water. Stir to combine.
• Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes, rotating the pan around halfway through. When the brownies are finished they should be firm in the center and the edges will be slightly puffy and starting to pull away from the sides.
• Let brownies cool completely then use a 2×2 in cookie cutter to cut into 24 squares.
• Optional: 1 1/2 cup walnuts (will add extra calories, though!).

• Bake in a preheated oven until the top is dry and edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 30 minutes.

• Alternatively, you can bake the brownies at 300 degrees for 1 hour and then an additional hour at 225 degrees.
