Black Bean Brownies

I have a weakness for anything chocolate, but eating brownies have proven to be filled with sugars that I do not need. So I needed to find a healthier alternative to these sweet treats. It took me by surprise when I realized how tasty these were. These black bean brownies make a great dessert to satisfy the sweet tooth ,without those fattening sugars.


Tip: If you are using canned beans, ensure you rinse them properly  to get as much sodium out as possible.

 Ingredients 
1 15 oz can of black beans or 1/2 cup pre cooked black beans
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup flour1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
3 eggs


Method
1. Mix all ingredients together. Pour into an 8x8 inch greased pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

These are not very sweet so you can have more than 1 piece and not feel guilty.
