Brownies made with black beans might sound quite unappealing to some of you, but I can assure you these are really delicious. No, I am not saying that they taste exactly like regular brownies, but still pretty delicious and nutritious as beans are a good source of protein and fiber. I used Happy Herbivore's recipe as inspiration, but slightly tweaked it by adding a little coconut oil and a mix of white and dark chocolate chips, but you can leave them out if you want to.

- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line an 8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside. Drain and rinse the cooked black beans.
- Combine all the ingredients, except the oats and chocolate chips, in a food processor and blend until completely smooth. Stir in oats and chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.

They looks so luscious! That is something I haven't tried yet.
Cheers,

I know that I will love them! I have made her recipe before too & loved it! I also have used white butter beans in brownies before & you didn't taste them at all,..they were superb too! xxx :)
Angie, I am going to surely try this, I am having all the ingredients in hand..
Angie muy buena receta y saludable tengo una amiga totalmente vegana ,tomo nota,abrazos
These look fantastic! I love the idea of using black beans
Hard to believe that's black beans!
I made them once, and I know how good they are. Best of all - guilt free, when eating them!
I've yet to meet any brownie I didn't like and I like black beans and I have a feeling I would really enjoy these. It looks so moist and I like the contrast w/ the dark and white chocolate chips.
Hi Angie! This is really unique and it sure sounds much healthier than regular ones :)
Another perfect recipe! Always a pleasure to visit your blog, so many amazing ideas!
I have tried many brownies, but haven't tried with beans yet.. :) they really look worth trying.
I'm very interested, Angie. Your bean brownie is on my to-do list. :) ela
Wow I didn't know we can bake with black beans. These look so moist and delicious!
Such pretty brownies and I adore black beans. How creative.

You kidding me Angie?. Wow girl!
I NEED to make these! I used baked beans in a quick bread that I absolutely flipped over and had 2 pieces right away. I think people underestimate the addition of beans to their baking; healthy way to get protein, especially with kids! XOXO
I've always been a little suspicious of bean brownies but now they have your seal of approval I must give them a try.
Angie , I never knew that we can use black bean for baking :D Those brownies certainly look moist and yummy !
Once again I will say "chocolate cures everything!" I love the addition of maple syrup. Does this add a hit of maple flavor as well?

Hi Angie,
An interesting ingredient, black bean used in brownies! Looks wonderful!
If you hadnt mentioned the black bean I would have thought there were regular brownies.
I've been meaning to try out the black bean brownie craze and your recipe has inspired me to go for it. It looks so fudgy and rich!
Hi Angie and thank you so much for popping in to see me. Oh, those brownies look so good! I can't imagine using black beans so I'll have to check these out! I'm sure they are pretty healthy too!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I never would have thought of making brownies with black beans, but knowing the natural sweetness of the beans, I can certainly see that it would work. Great idea and fabulous recipe! These look quite moist and chewy - the best kind!
What a terrific idea to use black beans to add fiber and nutrition to this well loved treat.
I'd really like to try these brownies to see how they taste! I have seen brownies and cookies made with beans before and find them very intriguing! These also look very chocolaty - yum!
I'm a huge fan of black beans in savoury dishes … I'm not sure how I feel about using it in a dessert!
Ooh, I have all of those ingredients in my kitchen. I'm going to make a batch today!
I have to try this!.....absolutely delicious!.......Abrazotes, Marcela
I'm making more vegan dishes for my daughter these days! I will show her these brownies, it's hard to imagine they started out with black beans! Very cool!
Wow, brownies with black beans! I salute you Angie :)
I have seen these out there and I will take your word for it. They definitely look yummy!
These look really good Angie I love your brownies:)
Angie, yours looks so great.. I hv tried with black chick pea but didn't come out well even after 40 mins of baking it didn't get cooked fully .. hv to try again

Black beans in brownies? Interesting :)
This is a new one on me, Angie. Can't quite imagine it, but willing to give them a try. They sure look good!

Only you could make black bean brownies look so pretty and delicious!
These look incredible! Love the melty chips peeking through!
They DO look incredible, not strange at all. Very luscious, yum!
Angie, I love the banana, the maple syrup, and oats in this amazing brownie recipe. Had you not mention the addition of the black beans...no way that anyone could taste the difference. Just makes it more moist and give extra flavor and protein! Looks and tastes super declicious!
These look incredible and oh so rich! I love me some black bean treats!
It's great that these brownies have some nutritional value. A healthy(ish) indulgence!
My sister has made a black bean version, too...now I can see why she loved them! Wow!
What do you think about using adzuki beans instead of black beans? Keeping the chocolate.
I've had a version of these before and I don't think I would know they contained black beans unless someone told me. I love to fool people with food! :)
I would never guess black beans as your secret healthy ingredient Angie! They look so super fudgy and irresistible!
I've never tried black beans in sweets but it sounds like o fantastic and creative idea.
They look so smooth inside and so, so tasty!
Angie, I love the idea of black beans! I'm gonna try these. They look pretty!
They look so gooey and decadent! Brilliant :D
Brownies looks absolutely gorgeous and simply delicious.
These black bean brownies sound scrumptious Angie.
have a lovely day.
;-) Mandy xo
Angie you come up with some of the most unusual recipes but I have to say I love the sound of these. Who cares about brownie calories with this recipe. You can be sure to eliminate whatever you've eaten, keep all the good nutrients while having enjoyed the great taste. (I know that must sound disgusting). These brownies definitely look moist. I have all the ingredients on hand and plan to try these later today. I can't wait to hear what my family thinks of these. Thanks for sharing.
You always have such good ideas and everything always looks so delicious.
This is such a great idea with black beans actually. The brownies look even creamier than the 'normal' kind. Great shots too.
i have heard of black bean brownies! I have never tried them before. I guess I am scared but yours looks so good I can't wait to take that step and give thema go!
OMG Angie, this black bean brownies look amazing...I can only imagine the creaminess of this treats...I love it!
Enjoy your week my dear :D
Wow I never thougt beans in brownies, you always come up with the idea,looks so moist and yummy ;)

I have talked about adding black beans to brownies for way too long. Now with my diet restrictions, I believe it is time to try out this lovely recipe! Hugs, Terra
One of my favorite brownies ever. Looks so moist :)
Leave it to you Angie to make black beans in a sweet look mouth watering. Super excited to try this as I've really gotten into healthier flour alternatives lately. Thanks for sharing!
