This recipe is super easy to make with only 8 ingredients! All the ingredients get thrown into a blender or food processor. If you are looking for a chocolatey treat but also want something healthy at the same time, then look no further than these black bean brownie bites. I love that these brownies are in a two bite size, so you get your healthy chocolate fix and the perfect portioned size.
The secret ingredient in these brownies are black beans! Black beans help to balance blood sugar levels in the body. They are a great source of protein and fibre. Black beans fibre content helps promote a healthy digestive tract! Black beans provide a good source of iron and folate.
