Today's Recipe: Black Bean Brownies

Two friends of mine who are also followers of this blog left this recipe for me this weekend, what a great idea! I can't wait to try them at home.

Black Bean Brownies
(gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free, peanut-free, nut-free)

1 (15.5 oz.) can black beans, rinsed and drained
3-egg equivalent using Ener-G Egg Replacer or regular eggs if no allergy
3 Tbsp.  vegetable oil
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 pinch salt
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup white sugar
1 tsp. instant coffee

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease an 8x8 square baking dish.

2. Combine the black beans, eggs or egg-replacer, oil, cocoa powder, salt, vanilla extract, sugar and instant coffee in a blender; blend until smooth; pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. If you don't have a milk allergy--> sprinkle chocolate chips over the top of the mixture.

3. Bake in the pre-heated oven until the top is dry and the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 30 minutes.
