Recipe: Black Bean Brownies (fudgier version)

   1 15 oz. can (~ 1 3/4 cups) black beans, well rinsed and drained

   4 Large eggs

   3 T coconut oil, melted (or sub other oil of choice)

   3/4 cup cocoa powder (the higher quality the better)

   1/4 tsp sea salt

  1 tsp pure vanilla extract

   1/2 cup sugar (or xylitol)

   1 1/2 tsp baking powder

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x9 inch cake pan. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into the greased cake pan and place into the oven for 25 minutes. These ones are meant to be more fudgey and the toothpick will not come out as clean!
