I just made these with adzuki beans, and they are fantastic: moist, chocolaty, hard-to-resist.

We haven’t tested this with another bean, but we suspect the brownies would still work well with either pinto or kidney. Give it a try and let us all know how it works out!

Can these be made with another type of bean other than black? Or will the type of bean matter all that much? I ask because the only hesitation I have in trying these is that I hate black beans. I can eat pinto or navy or great northern or any white or kidney bean you give me, but for some reason, the taste of black beans just makes me cringe. It’s like they’re sweet or something. Or maybe that’s what I want for a brownie recipe? Well, maybe I’ll try them as is, but if you think another type of bean would work, let me know!

Made the brownies for a Red Sox luncheon event at work and they were a huge hit! I kept the black beans a secret and had people guess what the high fiber, high protein mystery ingredient might be. Once the secret was out everyone wanted the recipe and couldn’t wait to try them again!

[...] Brownies with black beans? Really? We were dubious, but then we heard that the Meal Makeover Moms have a recipe, and if the Moms, Janice and Liz, say it’s good, we’ll give it a shot at least once. Three pans of these brownies later, we can tell you that they were right. And how! The recipe is excellent. The brownies are so soft and moist and fudgy! Without further ado, check out the recipe: [...]

I want to try these with peanut butter chips. I love chocolate / peanut butter. I just discovered I’m allergic to wheat but I’m a chocoholic, lol, so I’m loving these recipes. My kids love it because I pretend to not notice when they sneak them before dinner!

My family loves these, especially my husband. I substitute agave syrup for the sugar and only sprinkle 1/4 cup of mini chips on top. I use quality cocoa and they taste a bit dark – might try them again with 1/3 cup cocoa. I like them best refrigerated. I puree the beans with the agave syrup for a good long time and don’t have any “grainy” issues. You should let family try them before telling them they have beans in them so they are not biased. I also make a blondie recipe using white beans instead of black, omit the cocoa and add a tsp. of pure maple flavoring and sprinkle heath bar bits on top and sometimes add 1/2 cup oatmeal to the batter that I’ve run through the food processor.
