Time 1h10m

Yield 9 brownies

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
1/2 cup dry light brown lentils
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup natural applesauce
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup creamy almond butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 egg
1 1/4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mist an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • Add dry lentils and 1 cup water to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer until lentils are tender and most of the liquid is gone, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Add oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt to a food processor. Pulse until a fine flour forms and the oats are completely smooth.
  • Add cooked lentils (and any leftover liquid), applesauce, honey, almond butter, vanilla and egg and process until a smooth batter forms. Using a spoon, fold in at least 1 cup of the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter in the prepared baking dish and even out the top using a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top. Bake for about 25 minutes. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my brownies turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.
