I’m going to be straight up with you guys I was skeptical as fuck when I first heard about Black Bean Brownies. Especially since brownies are my all time favourite dessert which turns me in a brownie snob. Brownies are meant to be sinfully delicious and not at all healthy.
Watch the video for Black Bean Brownies here:
But every single photo I seen of these black bean brownies looked so drool worthy though and proper fudgy, like a brownie should be (fight me if you think otherwise). So in the name of science I had to test and make my own recipe and all I can say is I need to find the person who first created this recipe and give them my first born. Black Bean Brownies are my all time favourite brownies.
YOU WOULD NEVER GUESS THESE BROWNIES WERE MADE WITH BLACK BEANS AND ONLY NATURAL INGREDIENTS. They are dark, rich, fudgy, and uber chocolately. I also think they are so much easier than traditional brownies to make, just whiz everything up in a food processor (or blender) pop into a baking tray and bake. So simple, brownies don’t get any better than this.
Short and sweet today guys I have brownies to eat and so should you! :PPP

Brownies never disappoint. Add anything you want to them but brownies will always be something to crave for. The biggest challenge though most of the time is to make enough!
