Great addition to my healthy bean brownies! Recipe included!
I am always looking to make regular meals healthier. I like to replace rice with cauliflower rice, replace white sugar with Stevia and use beans where ever I can. I used this sugar to replace half the sugar in a healthier homemade brownie pie recipe I have tweaked with the main ingredient being low sodium canned great northern beans. For all of you skeptics out there, don’t knock it until you try it. This recipe is one I found online however I have tweaked the ingredients and trust me: it will blow you socks off.<br /><br />Ingredients:<br />2 cans low sodium northern beans<br />1/3 cup cocoa powder<br />2/3 cup quick oats (keep whole or blend into a flour)<br />1/4 cup applesauce<br />1/2 tap salt<br />1 tbsp vanilla extract<br />1 cups sugar (half white/half agave insulin powder)<br />1 cup chocolate chips (half milk/half dark)<br />Oil is to drizzle in (any oil works: grapeseed, olive, avocado, vegetable)<br /><br />Add all ingredients into a food processor and then on low. While on, slowly drizzle the oil into the food processor until the mixture is smooth then add in chocolate chips and then on high for a few minutes until everything is incorporated into a batter. Pour into a pre-greased 8 inch circle pan, cook for 25 minutes  and then left cool in the refrigerator for 4+ hours. Slice and serve! It is best served warmed up with vanilla ice cream!
