Ingredients
-
1 cup cooked adzuki beans
˝ cup pureed roasted beets
1/4 cup pureed raspberries
˝ cup Dutch process cocoa powder (I made beet-infused cocoa and used that)
6 packets vanilla flavoured stevia (equal to 1/4 cup vanilla sugar)
˝ cup coconut sugar (or dark brown sugar)
1/4 cup glutinous rice flour (aka sweet rice flour)
1/4 cup brown rice flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
pinch baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp ground flaxseed
1/4 cup cherry or raspberry flavoured chocolate chips (or semisweet chocolate chips)
˝ tsp coarse sugar, for topping (optional)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350F and line a 9" pan with parchment or greased foil.
In a food processor, puree the beans, beets and raspberries until smooth.
Add the cocoa, stevia (or vanilla sugar) and coconut sugar and puree smooth again.
Add the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt and flaxseed and mix smooth.
Add the chocolate chips and pulse in.
Spread in the pan and sprinkle with the coarse sugar.
Bake for 30-35 minutes.
Sprinkle with remaining half of the chocolate chips and return to the oven.
Turn off the oven and leave the brownies inside for 30 minutes, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.
