Black Bean Brownies



Yes you read the title right, Black Bean Brownies! I had heard a while ago that you can make brownies using black beans but truthfully I've been too chicken to try it for myself. Then a friend at work brought a batch in and I was blown away!  If she hadn't told me that black beans were in them I never would have known.  I tried it at home and they came out great!  It was so easy too.  All you need is a box of brownie mix, I used Betty Crocker's gluten free, and a can of black beans.  Puree your black beans and mix them in well with the brownie mix.  That's all you need...no eggs no oil or butter.  Pour them into a greased pan and follow the suggested baking time. You won't believe how delicious they are and guilt free too!

Thanks for stopping by Maryann! They are even better if you use a mix like Ghiradelli.
