Brownie Heaven :)

So, I love sweets. There's no getting around it. I found this awesome recipe on-line that my mom told me about actually. She said she was reading it on her nook in some book she purchased. So I searched around the net, and I found it. SO SIMPLE TO MAKE TOO! LOVE IT

You'll never guess the ingredients in it either, you totally cannot tell at all!!

Low Carb Black Bean Brownies

Ingredients

1 can rinsed and drained black beans
3 eggs or egg substitute
3 tbsp. oil
4 tbsp. cocoa powder
pinch of salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 to 3/4 c. sweetener of choice (i use splenda)
sugar free chocolate chips and nuts (optional)



These are the things I used








cooking spray

 

Directions

mix ingredients together in a blender until pureed. Pour into greased 8 x 8 cake pan.
Stir in some sugar free chocolate chips and nuts if you wish. Bake at 350 approximately 30 min.
Makes a dozen.

Ready to go in the oven for 30 minutes

(I doubled the recipe and made them in a larger cake pan)

*update* after doing this, I probably wouldn't eat this again during induction. They are so good you can't eat just one. Their like a real brownie, but a fudgey chewier texture to them. The Goya Black Beans actually have 18g of carbs and 8 grams of fiber for a 1//2 cup. I will probably check out other brands and see what they have available. I ate a small piece and it was great definitely something to keep on hand when your having a chocolate attack.  I would say I had about 1/4 of a brownie. It was a pretty good size, so to look and the info at the bottom, I would say that's probably accurate.

This was on the site I got it off of so I'm not 100% sure it's correct pertaining to the brands of the ingredients I used.
