Absolutely delicious! Moist and fudgy and yum. I shared with the neighbors and no one believed it had black beans in it. Not making any other brownies anymore.

Next time I will use applesauce in place of oil. To oily tasting for me. Otherwise I loved the recipe.

These were ok but nothing special. The texture was odd w/ not enough chocolate flavor. Nice way to add some protein (using the black beans but was a bit of a disappointment

These were Great!! I used 1/2 cup of applesauce and 2 tbsp of olive oil and used 1/3 cup oat flour w/ 2 tbsp of all purpose flour to make a little healthier!! Family love them!! Cut up fresh strawberries and cool whip!

I thought these were fantastic...and so did my hubby, and he's not usually into brownies! I don't understand how previous post says these aren't any healthier for you than regular brownies though...they have 1/3 of the flour than most, lil less sugar, olive oil is def much healthier than shortening or butter, and beans are great for you!! I would think they would have to be better for you??? PS the batter was unbelievably smooth and taste awesome:

These brownies are my new favorite treat!!! I swapped the regular flour for whole wheat flour,put a bit less than 1/3 cup and add some wheat germ. Also,instead of the sugar i put Stevia(same taste,you won't be able to tell the difference,and less calories!!! I added some of the liquid form the black beans(if you're using canned beans and they become so moist. So,way healthier and super delicious!!!!! Thank you so much,Melissa!

I signed up just to save these brownies from the 3 negative reviews that show up on the front page. All the earlier ones are really positive. These brownies aren't much healthier than regular ones but they taste really good.
