The Secret Ingredient Brownies

{CONTAINS PEANUTS} Fiber Fueled Cookbook, Dr Will Bulsiewicz

1 15 oz can low sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
½ c peanut butter (without added sugar or palm oil, try Smucker’s Natural Chunky)
½ c maple syrup
1 tbsp avocado or peanut oil
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ c almond or oat flour (take organic old-fashioned oats-grind to a fine powder in a coffee bean grinder)
¼ c cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
Chocolate chips and chopped nuts to sprinkle on top of batter

In the base of a food processor

place the beans, peanut butter, maple syrup, oil, vinegar, vanilla, and
blend well. Scrape sides of processor as needed; 1-2 times usually works.

Add dry ingredients to the processor. Blend until creamy and smooth, stopping occasionally to scraping down the sides. Batter will be thick.

Place a piece of parchment paper in an 8 x 8 pan. Spoon batter into pan, spread evenly. Sprinkle

chocolate chips and nuts on top.

Bake 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. They will have a fudgy consistency.
