Equipment

- Food processor
- Rubber spatula

- Measuring cups
- Mini muffin tin or regular muffin tin/8x8 baking dish
- Scooper optional
Ingredients
- 1 15 oz can Black beans drained, rinsed
- 1 Banana
- 1 Egg
- 3 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup Oats
- 1/4 cup Peanut butter or nut/seed butter of choice
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 2 tsp Vanilla
- 1/2 cup Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse and drain canned beans. Add all ingredients, except the chocolate chips, to a food processor and mix until smooth and creamy.
- Transfer brownie batter to mixing bowl and add chocolate chips, leaving 1/8 cup for topping brownie bites with.
- Grease the muffin tins with butter or cooking spray. Scoop roughly one tablespoon of brownie batter into each muffin tin. Fill the muffin tin all the way, as brownies do not rise a lot. level out brownie bites with a spoon and sprinkle on a few mini chocolate chips, pressing down to make sure they stick once cooked.
- Bake black bean brownie bites for 10 to 12 minutes, poking the center of one of the brownie bites with a toothpick to see if it comes clean. If the toothpick reveals brownie batter, bake for an extra 1 to 2 minutes.
- These black bean brownie bites are best enjoyed warm and fresh!
