Black Bean + Pumpkin Brownies

November 8, 2017 By Sarah White No Comments

Ladies & gentlemen, keep working your way through those cans of pumpkin puree with these black bean + pumpkin brownies. I typically don’t eat a ton of sweets since my body is extremely sensitive to sugar (queen hangry here) but these brownies have a whopping 10g of fibre per serving and contain no refined sugars to minimize blood sugar spikes. Best enjoyed warm with a big glass of homemade almond milk.
