Black Bean Protein Brownies

Black Bean Protein Brownies

Ingredients:

40g brown rice protein (or Vegan Protein, Vegan Protein Extreme, or Vegan Wondershake)
25g vanilla whey
170g canned unsalted black beans
150g fresh egg whites
16g 100% cocoa
74g quark
37g pitted medjool dates (two big ones)
Pinch of baking powder
Vanilla essence

Directions:

1. Mix all of the above in a bowl and mush it all up with a blender until its smooth.

2. Meanwhile, spray a baking tray with some olive spray or rub some coconut oil on it (so the brownies don’t stick) and then put it in the oven at 150 degrees.

I like to use a cookie tray so I can make them into sandwiches by putting nut butter in between once they come out but maybe you want them taller, more like regular brownies in which case you can use a brownie-type baking tray and eat them solo.

3. After a good 5 minutes, take the baking tray out and put your protein mixture in it.

4. Bake it until a fork comes out clean; about 15 minutes or so.

5. Cut into squares. Let them cool and be amazed at the delicious moist chocolatyness that will quickly overwhelm you.

Like I said, they are incredible with nut butter in between! I dare anyone to try this and not become an immediate rice protein powder fan!
