People are like Oreos, the good stuff is inside.

I asked you whether or not you wanted to get the recipe of an avocado toast or Oreo brownie on my instagram today, and you said Oreo brownie. Good choice, because here it is! The recipe is vegan and it is based on one of my older chocolate brownie recipes - made on black kidney beans. This time it’s more extra, even better and it’s taken to a whole new level with chocolate sauce and Oreos! The consistency is soft, and in some areas sticky, while at the same time it’s nicely combined with the crunchy Oreo cookies as garnishing. Yes, you get the drill. It’s perfection.

Did I really say beans?

Yes, because using various beans in baking is actually a very good substitute for flour, while at the same time you are making the recipe a lot more protein rich. Except for the beans I’m only using 3 tbsp of buckwheat flour (or wheat flour, almond flour or other nut flours) in the brownie.

Is this sugar free?

Well, the brownie and the glaze are sugar free but the Oreos are not. The purpose of my social platforms is never contribute to a stressful thinking and anxiety towards calorie counting, macros and workout, and that is why I sometimes - in between the “healthy” recipes - will give you various kinds of recipes that possibly will include, for instance, a little bit of sugar.
