Want to learn how to make a special Australia bush superfood brownie recipe? You’ve come to the right place.
I love experimenting with new ingredients and herbs and just have fun in the kitchen. I made this delicious brownie mainly using Certified Organic black beans as the base, macadamia nuts, and some other delish local ingredients like peanut butter!
I have been craving chocolate and sweets this past month so have been trying healthier alternatives that I can snack on when that craving hits. I especially love these brownies after a good surf sesh as a post work out snack as well.
Anyways nuff chit chattin, let’s get to the brownies. See recipe below.
Ingredients:
– 2 tablespoons ground chia seeds
– 6 tablespoons water
– 400g tinned Certified Organic black beans
(usually, that’s 1 can amount)
– 4 tablespoons cacao powder
– 2 tablespoons ground wattleseed
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 3 tablespoons coconut oil
– 1/3 cup rice malt syrup
– 2 tablespoons Byron Bay peanut butter
– 1/2 teaspoon dried cinnamon myrtle
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1 handful raw macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
Instructions:
1) Preheat oven to 180 degrees and line a baking tin with baking paper
2) Combine the ground chia with water, stir and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes
3) Rinse and drain your can of black beans. Add the beans to the blender along with the chia mixture and all other ingredients except the chopped macadamia nuts. Blend until the texture is smooth (no chunks!)
4) Pur the brownie mix into the baking tin and top it off with the chopped macadamia nuts. Bake for about 25-30 minutes.
5) Leave brownies to cool.
Tip: served with caramel ice cream after din is so GOOD!!
