How to cook black bean brownies
Preheat your oven and pour the brownie mix into a bowl. According to Babs, you’ll want to rinse your black beans before putting them in a blender with three tablespoons of coffee.
Add the beans to your brownie mix and stir. Add another quarter cup of coffee, and then move the batter to a pan for the oven.
Are black bean brownies actually good?
I do not like to be proven wrong. I still boldly stand by the claim I made in third grade when I announced that donuts are gross, even though I now live near a Krispy Kreme, and it sometimes smells very good.
But readers, these brownies were delicious. I’m not sure where the recipe came from or who first came up with it, but I could not taste anything but chocolatey goodness. The tray did not last more than a few days in my kitchen because every time I walked by, I thought, “I deserve some legumes right now.”
I also read that black beans are great for other brownie recipes as a replacement for flour, so any celiacs with a sweet tooth should also consider trying it out.
