    A homemade brownie batter that is easy to make, full of protein thanks to creamy white beans, and has a deep chocolate flavor. Like my edible cookie dough and my cookie dough bites, it is easy to eat like a pudding, ice cream, or even use as a dip for cookies.

    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    High in protein and fiber. This treat contains white beans and thus provides 5 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber per serving.

    Low glycemic. Using coconut palm sugar which tastes just like brown sugar, you get a treat that is low glycemic, it doesn't hike your blood sugar.

    Easy to make. Either process in a food processor or blend

    Ingredient's You'll Need

    This healthy batter is brimming with whole food ingredients that are probably in your kitchen right now!

    1. Cocoa powder
    2. White beans, or black are fine too. I try to buy unsalted.
    3. Almond flour
    4. Sugar - I have used both coconut palm sugar and organic cane sugar. I love coconut palm sugar best because of it's low fructose content and low glycemic index, and is rich in minerals and antioxidants - a far healthier alternative to refined white sugar.
    5. Milk
    6. Vanilla

    Steps to Make

    1. Rinse the beans, and add all ingredients to a food processor or blender.

    2. Blend until creamy.

    3. Chill for at least 30 minutes as it tastes best cold. Keep refrigerated or freeze.

    How to Store

    Store in the refrigerator for two days or freeze for three months.

    Possible Mix-ins

    Nuts - Walnuts are the perfect brownie partner.
    Chocolate Chips - Make it double chocolate
    Chocolate sauce - Make it a triple!
    Nut butter - add as a swirl or topping
    Fruit - fold in strawberries or raspberries or even blueberries
    Ice Cream - Yes! Serve this batter with ice cream as an incredibly decadent dessert.

    FAQS

    Can I Eat Brownie Batter?

    You can eat this brownie batter raw because it is made with almond flour and without eggs. You cannot eat raw brownie batter that contains eggs since raw eggs or white flour since both have the potential to have bacteria.

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 15.5oz can white beans (I used cannellini or navy or northern. You can also use black beans. Rinse well if you use normal sodium beans)
    • 1 cup almond flour
    • 3 tablespoon cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
    • ¼ cup organic cane sugar or coconut palm sugar
    • 3 tablespoon milk I used almond
    • ½ teaspoon vanilla
    • pinch of salt

    Instructions
     

    • Rinse the beans and measure out ingredients.
    • Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender. You can start with half the sugar, blend, then taste the mixture. If it is sweet enough, you don't need to add the other half sugar.
      1 15.5oz can white beans, 1 cup almond flour, 3 tablespoon cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder, ¼ cup organic cane sugar or coconut palm sugar, 3 tablespoon milk, ½ teaspoon vanilla, pinch of salt
    • I spread my batter into a parchment-lined loaf pan so I could scoop like ice cream. But you can just leave it in the bowl as well.
    • Chill the batter in the refrigerator to give it a more solid texture if you want to scoop it. Or just serve it soft.
    • To serve, scoop and sprinkle or drizzle.
    • Keep stored for 2 days in the refrigerator, or freeze for three months.

    Nuts - Walnuts are the perfect brownie partner.

    Chocolate sauce - Make it a triple!
    Nut butter - add as a swirl or topping
    Fruit - fold in strawberries or raspberries or even blueberries

      Oaky so I used oat flour. I didn't have almond. It was a bit dry so I doubled the milk. Perfect! I chilled it to make scoops and it works beautifully. I love your recipes.
