Sweeten the day with brownies that sneak in a little goodness. Conchita Black Beans give them a fudgy, rich texture you'd never guess was there — and the kids won't either. A small kitchen secret from our house to yours.
Ingredients
• 1 can (15 oz) Conchita Black Beans, rinsed and drained
• 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup quick oats
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
How to make it
Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine all ingredients except chips in a good food processor, and blend until completely smooth.
Stir in the chips, then pour into a greased 8×8 pan.
Cook the black bean brownies 15–18 minutes, then let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing.
