High Protein, High Fiber Chocolate Brownie

High Protein, High Fiber Chocolate Brownie

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups black beans (1 can, 15 oz, drained and rinsed thoroughly; 250g after draining)
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder (10g) (Hattian is best)
  • 1/2 cup quick oats (40g) (Ideally sprouted)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (Redmonds or Baha Salt)
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup, honey, or agave (75g)
  • A pinch of stevia 
  • 1/4 cup coconut (if blood type O use macadamia) & (if you'd like more protein use peanut butter instead)
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 to 2/3 cup chocolate chips (Stevia Chocolate Chips)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a food processor, combine all ingredients except the chocolate chips. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth. A food processor works best for texture and taste, but a blender can be used if necessary.
  3. Stir in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into a greased 8×8-inch pan. Optionally, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top for presentation.
  4. Bake for 15-18 minutes. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting. If they appear slightly undercooked, place them in the refrigerator overnight to firm up.
  5. This recipe makes 9-12 brownies. Serve them first and reveal the secret ingredient afterward...people rarely guess the black beans!
  6. I personally triple this recipe because they get gobbled up so quickly.

Special Note:

These are best consumed on either Wednesday or Sunday Breakfast on the program!
