Fudgy Vegan Black Bean Brownies

One of the keys to keeping our fitness goals on track during the chilly, comfort food gorging months is having the right kind of treats on hand. You’d be forgiven for thinking that brownies are the opposite of a healthy treat, but these black bean brownies are actually a great option for any chocolate lover! These deliciously fudgy squares of goodness are packed with plant protein, fibre and use far less sweetener than the sugar-laden standard brownie recipes.
