Ingredients

  • 2 large ripe bananas peeled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, 1 3/4 cups
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9” x 5” loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Drain and rinse the black beans of any liquid and pat them dry with a paper towel (they don’t need to be perfectly dry, just not overly saturated).
  • Transfer the black beans to a blender along with the rest of the ingredients (except chocolate chips) and blend until smooth. If adding chocolate chips, stir them into the batter.
  • Transfer the batter to the parchment-lined loaf pan and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the bread feels firm when gently poked in the center.
  • Allow bread to cool at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
