In my first post I announced that this blog won’t have recipes or how-to’s, but I’ve gotta break the rules today.

This is just the coolest recipe I’ve seen: black bean brownies. These treats are moist, delicious, and have a whole lot more fiber and protein than your typical brownie. But no fooling yourself – this is not a health food, just a better alternative than the typical brownie.

I added a teaspoon of baking powder, a teaspoon of cinnamon, and sprinkled some homemade streusel topping on it before I baked them. If you want to bake these in a 9×13, double the recipe.

Really, really delicious.

I brought a plate of these over to my neighbor for taste-testing. She thought they were wonderful, but her five year old daughter took one bite and said, “These aren’t brownies.” Busted.

What do you think? Are they worthy of the brownie title?
