Ingredients:


  • 2 Flax Eggs (2 Tbsp Ground Flaxseed Meal + 6 Tbsp Hot Water)
  • 2 15oz Cans Black Beans ( rinsed and drained)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 c unsweetened almond milk or any other dairy free milk of choice
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 3/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar or sugar alternative ( date syrup or honey)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground coffee
  • 1/2 cup of dairy free chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup of peanut butter ( optional)


Directions:


  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F
  2. Grease a small 9X9 pan
  3. Combine the 2TBS of flax seed with 6TBS of hot water and set aside for 5 minutes. The mixture will become thick after it sits. This is your flax egg.
  4. Drain and rinse the black beans and set aside.
  5. Combine the flour, coco powder, sugar, baking powder, coffee, and salt together.
  6. After the flax egg has become thick add the black beans, vanilla, almond milk, and vegetable oil together and blend in a food processor for 1 minute until combined. You may have to scrape down the sides and continue processing to make sure everything is blended.
  7. Add the black bean mixture to the dry ingredients.
  8. Mix for 1 minute until combined. If the mixture is too thick add a little water. Do not overmix.
  9. Add chocolate chips
  10. Pour batter into the greased dish
  11. Using a knife swirl the peanut butter mixture throughout the brownies
  12. Bake for 40 minutes
  13. Not sure if the brownies are done? Insert a toothpick into the center of the brownies. When the toothpick comes out clean, that's when you know they will be ready!


Tips/Tricks:These store great for about a week and a half. This recipe makes about 12 decent size brownies!

We also love using these brownies in our Vegan Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie recipe. These brownies pair perfectly with a scoop of dairy free cool whip, dairy free ice cream, or a glass of dairy free almond milk!
