How to Make Beanie Brownies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Drain and rinse one (15-ounce) can of black beans. Add the beans to a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth.
  3. In a large bowl, combine one (15.25-ounce) box of your favorite brownie mix, the pureed beans, and 1/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce.
  4. Mix well until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  7. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before sprinkling lightly with powdered sugar and cutting into squares.
