Can I half this recipe? I only have 1 can of black beans but I have all the other ingredients? Looks so good!!!
I can’t wait to try this! Will Flax or Chia Seed be a good enough egg replacer?
Yes, please answer this! I don’t keep egg replacer in the house. TIA!
1 tbsp flax meal and 3 tbsp h2o – perfect fudge brownies!
I made these tonight and added some walnuts. They are so delicious!
Valerie, I used flax egg – 1 tbsp flax meal and 3 tbsp h2o and it turned out great. Hope this helps.
Could you use flax for the egg replacer?
Brandy, I used flax egg – 1 tbsp flax meal and 3 tbsp h2o. The brownies were unreal!
Great recipes I cannot wait to try them on my twin niece and nephew who just started this lifestyle!!({I’m working on me lol ) please Keep them coming and short and easy are so much healthful
Is it really 2 15oz cans of black beans im not sure where mine went wrong because it seems like everyone else’s came out good but mine tasted really bland and beany I even added extra chocolate chips .
These are KILLER!!! Thanks, Kiki ?
These look amazing!!
Yes , they are KILLER! I put them in regular sized muffin cups for easier freeze, and when they came out of oven, I sprinkled a few chips on each one and put back in oven for 3 minutes…..And then I spread like frosting after the 3 minutes. Next time I am going to try mini muffin sized pan…….
These are dangerously good! It’s hard to find egg replacer in Australia so I used 1 mashed banana instead and they were AMAZING!!
I’ve made these three times now AND still lost weight THANK YOU JESUS (and Kiki) So appreciate it! Kid approved which is huge!
GREAT IDEA! THANKS!
[…] original recipe comes from Plantiful Kiki and can be found HERE. […]
I can finally feel good about feeding my kids brownies for dinner! LOL! ???
These are incredible!
These are delicious! I may not have told everyone there are black beans in them!
I made these yesterday and so happy I did! They are delicious!
This is seriously the best recipe everrrrrr!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating!
These were so easy to make and turned out really yummy. I have been craving a dessert these past couple weeks since starting the starch solution and this hit the spot. Thanks Kiki!
Hello. Please what does it means “2-15 oz” ? Thanks a lot. It looks so ymmy.
Two fifteen ounce cans of black beans. Be sure to drain the beans in a colander, then rinse them with water.
These were seriously good! Nobody could guess what the main ingredient was.
What can i use in replacment of apple sauce? Will mashed banana work? We dont have apple sauce here.
These were good. Not too sweet and a satisfying chew to them. I used 2 silicone roll molds (each mold has 6 x 3″ circles) and they came out nice. It would be good to post the nutrition data, I like to compare it to the boxed brownies which I’m sure are more calories.
I copied the recipe into a nutritional calculator and came up with:
