Vegan Brownie Recipe: Activist Mommy Hits LWM Two Days in a Row

by Sally Andersen

Don’t worry, I did not forget about Recipe Sunday; I merely bumped it a few hours.

Today I bring you another recipe sent in for a free copy of David Kamp’s “The United States of Arugula” (which I still have a few unclaimed copies of, so get out your vegetarian recipes).

Activist Mommy is our featured chef du jour. She has altered a lacto-ovo brownie, leaving out the milk, eggs, and butter. Her kids love this delight, and her in-laws have no clue that the chocolatey wonders are vegan (shh…we won’t tell!). brownies.bmp

Don’t be scared off if you aren’t vegan, these are “so yummy, moist, and sweet” according to Activist Mommy. And when my birthday came last, I had two different vegan cakes that people are still raving about!

Activist Mommy’s Vegan Brownies

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup vegan sugar
2 bananas
1/4 cup applesauce

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Pour into a lightly greased 8×8 pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Enjoy!

Wow, is that really all? That seems easier than classic brownies. Not to mention healthier!

Thanks Activist Mommy, and everyone else … keep those recipes coming.
