15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained (or about 2 cups cooked from dried)
1½ Tbsp coconut oil, melted
¼ cup applesauce
1 egg
½ cup honey
¾ tsp vanilla extract
5 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ cup coconut flour
1 tsp baking soda
¾ tsp salt
½ cup mini chocolate chips or more (I used Enjoy Life dairy-free, soy-free)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking pan with a non-stick mat, parchment paper, or non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In food processor puree the beans along with the oil, applesauce, egg, honey, and vanilla. Puree until smooth.
Add cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, and salt into wet mixture; blend to combine. The consistency will resemble brownie batter.
Remove blade from food processor and stir in chocolate chips.
Drop spoonfuls of dough onto prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Let sit for five minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool. Store in the refrigerator or freezer. Enjoy!
