INGREDIENTS

• 2 cans black beans (drained and rinsed)

• 3/4 cup oats

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 1/2 cup maple syrup, honey, or agave

• 1/4 cup coconut oil

• 2 tsp pure vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp baking powder

• 1/2 cup to 2/3 cup chocolate chips

METHOD

Preheat oven to 180c.

Combine all ingredients except choc chips in a food processor, and blend until completely smooth. Making sure to really blend well.

Stir through the choc chips, then pour into a oiled 20cm×20cm tin.

If they still look a bit undercooked, you can place them in the fridge overnight and they will firm up.
