No-flour Brownie (Fudgy and Moist)

KeyVion Miller RDN, LD/N
Guil-free brownies are here to stay! These flour-less brownies also have less sugar that doesn't compromise the taste. Let's face it, we want to be healthy but we also want great tasting food! These brownies are just that.

Equipment

blender
Colander
8x8 baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 15 oz can pinto beans drained and rinsed
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 2 tablespoon extra light tasting olive oil
  • cup honey
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil or coat an 8x8 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • Add the honey, egg whites, vanilla extract and olive oil to the blender first. We want the liquid ingredients on the bottom. Then add the pinto beans (drained and rinsed) to the blender. Add the sugar, cocoa powder and the pinch of salt. Blend well until smooth and creamy. Once the mixture starts to look like dark chocolate then you know it is blended well!
  • Add ¼ cup of the chocolate chips to the blender and pulse a few times to get the chips to break up a little.
  • Pour the batter into the pan, smooth the top with a spatula and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ cup of chocolate chips.
  • Bake 30 minutes, or until the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan. Insert a toothpick to make sure the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan before slicing into 12 squares.
    *Note: I like to cut one side into 3 equal sections and then the other side into 4 sections to get 12 brownies.

Notes

Feel free to add your favorite nuts or a different type of chocolate chip. This recipe should also come out well using black beans instead of pinto beans.
My favorite way to eat a brownie is warm. After storing these in the fridge, nuke one brownie in the microwave to get it warm. They should keep in the fridge for about 4 days. Enjoy!
