Title: Black bean brownies
Post by: merigayle on January 15, 2017, 04:20:56 PM: Now I have been a black bean brownie fan for a long time, but i was at a breakfast the other day and usually i can eat nothing but there was this brownie there that i could eat and thought this would be a good breakfast or snack option for DD.
YUM!

Black beans-15 oz
Eggs-3
Greek yogurt-1/2 cup+
Maple-1/2 cup
Vanilla-3 tsp
Cocoa powder-1/2 cup

1. Blend all the ingredients
2. Pour into a pan
3. Add Bitter chocolate-1/2 cup on the top (i used 2 tbs of mini enjoy life chips.)
4. Put it in the oven(350) for about 40 min plus

Never had any black bean brownies, and I don't think I have eaten more than 2 regular brownies in my entire life.
