INGREDIENTS
1 can (15 oz) Black Beans, drained (~240g)
2 Large Eggs
1 cup Whey Protein Isolate (approx. 120g)
1/3 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (~30g)
1/4 cup Almond Butter (~64g)
1/3 cup Maple Syrup (~80g)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Rinse and drain the black beans thoroughly. In a food processor, blend the beans until smooth.
Add the eggs, whey protein isolate, cocoa powder, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder, and a pinch of salt to the black bean puree.
Blend all ingredients until you obtain a thick, smooth, and fudgy batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool completely before cutting into 10 squares.
