Black Bean Cookies
Report
Black Bean Cookies? You read it right! These soft, chocolate-y cookies are made with black beans. Cocoa powder and dark chocolate chips help give this cookie the sweet chocolate flavor, disguising the beans.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup black beans canned, drained and rinsed
- ¼ cup coconut oil melted
- ½ cup agave syrup or maple syrup
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Place the black beans, coconut oil, agave syrup, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, salt, and lemon juice into a food processor. Blend until it forms a smooth batter.
- Pour the batter into a medium bowl and add the almond meal. Stir to combine.
- Fold in the dark chocolate chips, reserving about ¼ of the amount for decorating the top of the cookies.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop up the batter in small balls, and place on the baking sheet, leaving enough space for them to expand.
- Add the reserved chocolate chips to the top of the cookies.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- When they’re done, the cookies will still be soft. If unsure, try gently moving one with a spatula, and if it feels like it’s holding its shape, they’re likely done.
- Let the cookies cool, and store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 7 days. (They can be a bit crumbly if kept at room temperature.)
