Adzuki Bean Brownies
By Bailey1_
Now to the good stuff….these brownies are a bit labor intensive, but they are worth it. You will not be sorry you took the time to make them. And, if your children like chocolate, these make a great healthy snack or after dinner dessert. If you have a bean brownie recipe, I would love to hear about it. Enjoy!

Preparation
Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Whisk together all dry ingredients (do not include the chocolate chips) in a large bowl. In a double boiler melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil. In a food processor or blender add the beans, melted chocolate chips and oil, and applesauce. Puree until the beans are a creamy texture. Combine the bean mixture into the dry ingredients, add the beaten egg and stir until well incorporated. Spray a 9×9 baking pan. Pour mixture into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
