Description

My favorite brownie recipe! They are moist, dense, fudgy, and packed with protein and fiber. Brownies don’t get better than this!

Ingredients

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed well

1/2 cup + 2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

3/4 cup white/whole wheat flour (oat flour for gluten free)

2 scoops (68g) Macro1 Nutrition, ONE Protein, chocolate brownie

1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt*

3 whole eggs

1/3 cup coconut oil, melted

1/2 cup + 2 tbsp. honey**

1/4 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond)

2-3 tbsp. granulate stevia (more or less depending on how sweet you like it)

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips, melted

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Add black beans, Greek yogurt, eggs, melted coconut oil, honey, milk, stevia, and melted chocolate chips to food processor. Blend until completely smooth.

Now add dry ingredients: cocoa powder, flour, protein powder, baking powder and salt. Blend/process again until smooth.

Add chocolate chips and pulse a few times to incorporate.

Line a 9×9 glass baking dish with foil. Spray with nonstick baking spray. Pour batter into baking dish and spread evenly into the dish.

Sprinkle with some chocolate chips on the top if desired. Bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes. Be careful not to over-bake. I like leave mine a little underdone so they are more moist and fudge-like.

Slice and enjoy!

Notes

*The vanilla Greek yogurt can be substituted for pumpkin puree, applesauce, or even mashed banana.

**For lower sugar, you can use sugar free maple syrup instead of the honey.
