Ingredients
- 1 15-oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In the bowl of a food processor combine black beans, sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, coconut oil, vanilla, baking powder, and salt. Blend for 2 to 3 minutes or until the batter is very smooth. Don’t forget to scrape down the sides.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Scoop the batter into 6 well-greased 125mL mason jars or ramekins. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- ***IMPORTANT Most mason jar manufacturers do not recommend baking in mason jars as there is a risk of the jars cracking in the oven. I have never personally had an issue with this but it is important to understand the risks involved.
