Ingredients

  • 1 cup black beans canned, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • ½ cup sugar
  • cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon kosher salt separated
  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate bar, chopped, or chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Spray a shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a blender, puree the black beans and olive oil until smooth. Add the Zing™ Baking Blend, cocoa powder, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon and cayenne pepper to the black bean mixture and pulse until just combined. If needed, scrape the sides of the blender with a spatula to ensure all ingredients are well mixed.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and use a spatula to even out the mixture. Evenly sprinkle the chocolate pieces on top of the mixture, followed by the kosher salt.
  • Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the brownie edges come away from the sides of the pan. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before cutting.
