Flourless chocolate and peanut butter brownies

May 26, 2014 By Michelle Rogers

brownies

Here’s a delicious, decadent brownie recipe with no wheat and no butter. It was developed by my husband Keith, a pastry chef. And because it’s made with black beans (trust me, you’ll never know they’re in there), peanut butter and eggs, each serving boasts 5 grams of protein. Honestly, I love the taste of these brownies more than the traditional recipe. Enjoy!

brownies-in-panIngredients:

  • 1 15 oz. can of black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 1/2 cups roasted sunflower seeds
  • 3/4 cup grapeseed oil
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 cup melted chocolate (any brand of bittersweet or semisweet melting chocolate or melted chocolate chips)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

Directions:

  • Grind seeds with the oil in a food processor
  • Add beans, grind.

  • In a separate bowl, combine peanut butter and 1/2 cup of the brownie mixture.
  • Spray a 13 x 19″ baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Put batter in pan. Swirl peanut butter mixture into it with a spoon.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick comes clean when inserted.
  • Cool in pan.
