(Gluten Free)
These brownies are moist and luscious.
No one will know, unless you tell them, that they are made with black beans.

Vegan Herbal Brownies (Gluten Free)
3 cups organic black beans - slightly mashed
The black beans add protein and lots of fiber which help to prevent
blood sugar spikes.
Egg Substitute (directions are below) or 2 large eggs
1/2 cup raw honey (or a variation with 1/4 cup honey and a half cup of
chopped dates)
1/3 cup coconut oil (liquid)
Goji berries to taste
Combine the following dry ingredients and then blend into the wet ingredients.
1/2 cup raw cacao powder
4 tablespoons reishi powder
(Reishi is a powerful medicinal mushroom known for its immune enhancing actions. You can find powdered reishi online at Mushroom Harvest at a reasonable price.)
2 tablespoons tapioca starch (I used a heaping tablespoon of Kudzu dissolved
in just enough water to make a paste)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt (or sea salt)
1 teaspoon baking soda
Egg Substitute
Boil 1 tablespoon flax seeds in one cup of water until reduced to 3/4 cup.
Chill before using 1/4 cup for each egg.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes.
I found that the center was still too moist after 40 minutes and so I actually
bake the brownies for a bit over an hour.
Enjoy!
Thank you Madelon for this yummy and super healthy recipe.
I have personally tried these brownies and they are really delicious.
