Ingredients

1 pound of black bean
4 ounces of agave syrup
1.5 ounces of coconut oil
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 orange
1/4 teaspoon of sea salt
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
3 ounces of powdered sugar
1.5 ounces of cocoa powder
3.5 ounces of vegan bitter chocolate

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180 °C). Lightly oil an 8x8-inch metal square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the black beans, agave, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and orange zest until the mixture is smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the salt, baking powder, sugar, and cocoa powder. Incorporate the black bean mixture and aquafaba until the brownie batter is well mixed.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, being careful not to overwork the mixture.
Pour the mixture into the baking tin. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the brownies pull away from the edge and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Leave to cool for 15-20 minutes before cutting and serving.

Tips

Use canned black beans.
Drain and rinse the black beans. Rinse and puree the black beans to get a good paste consistency.
Use a neutral oil. Coconut oil, grapeseed or canola oil are ideal for this recipe. Do not use olive oil. For more, check out our ‘Types of Cooking Oil’ article.
If using eggs, make sure they are at room temperature. Otherwise, the oil in the mixture may clump together.
You can use aquafaba or flaxseed eggs instead of eggs.
You can use honey, maple syrup, or agave syrup instead of sugar.
You can add espresso to the mix for extra chocolate flavor.
You can add nuts to add flavor and texture to the brownie. You can add ingredients like walnuts, almonds, pistachios, macadamias, or peanuts.
Do not overcook the brownie. Otherwise, the cake will dry out. If a toothpick comes out clean when you insert a toothpick to make sure the cake is cooked, then the cake is done.
After cooking, let the brownie cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
You can use a high-speed blender or food processor.
