These kidney bean brownies are perfect if you're looking for a healthy twist on the classic. They are super fudgy thanks to the kidney beans, grain-free and gluten-free. And in case you are wondering if they taste like beans, the answer is no. They actually taste like real brownies. The add of espresso powder gives these brownies even more intense chocolate flavour. Alternatively, use pure vanilla powder instead to provide a fully rounded flavour and enhance the sweetness.

- Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Lightly grease a 20 x 20cm brownie tin and line with baking parchment.
- Place the rolled oats in a blender and grind as finely as possible, then mix in a bowl with the coconut sugar, baking powder, salt, cocoa and espresso powder. Place the kidney beans in a sieve, rinse thoroughly under cold water and drain.
- Place the coconut milk, coconut oil and apple sauce in the blender. Add the drained beans and puree everything into a creamy mixture. Add the bean puree to the oat mix and mix everything quickly into a smooth batter. Fold in half of the chopped chocolate.
- Scrape the mixture into the tin with a spatula, level it and top with the remaining chocolate. Bake for 25 minutes until firm to the touch. Cool completey, then cut into squares. Will keep for a few days in a tin at room temperature, and 1 week in the fridge.

...this sure is a twist!
ReplyDeleteNow that title caught my eye. Interesting. I noticed you used some good chocolate. I wonder how they taste if you use some cheaper brands? Have a great weekend Angie.
ReplyDeleteVery good
ReplyDeleteVi este brownie la primera vez, en forma de tortitas en una película japonesa y ahora nos traes la receta que es una maravilla. No me quedo sin probarla. Gracias.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a combination I would have never thought of!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is different. A brownie made with beans?
ReplyDeleteTake care, have a wonderful weekend.
I've enjoyed black bean brownies, but never would have thought to use kidney beans.
ReplyDeleteAngie, you posted a recipe today that has no waste! I have seen that many pastry chefs prepare it with excellent results.
ReplyDeleteBest regards
That is a surprise! But they sound good!
ReplyDeleteI have a similar recipe but without the apple sauce, coconut milk which we don't have here. It is a nice recipe for us glufreers :) My problem with sweets is that I just do not use any kind of sugar, not even coconut or palm sugar, so that erased most of the recipes for me, sadly.
ReplyDeleteInteresting brownies, I never heard of before.
ReplyDeleteA great idea to add more nutrition! Thanks Angie!
ReplyDeleteA great recipe.
ReplyDeleteI like the gluten free brownies.
This hocolate cake is too tempting...

ReplyDeleteExcellent! I have seen the brownies with black beans. I think I can try this as I used kidney beans more.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious.
ReplyDeleteI haven't made it with beans yet. Sometimes I bake with beets.
ReplyDeleteI didn’t think that kidney beans and brownies even went together in the same sentence!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious . I've baked brownies with black beans and it always came out moist and tasty.
ReplyDeleteI have several with celiac disease and gluten free is all they can have sending this one along great recipe!
