Queal Black Bean Brownie Cakes

"Ever tried black bean brownies? They’re sweet and well... chocolatey but very rich in fibres as well. With these brownie bites, you’ll be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth and get in something good and nutritious at the same time. And the best of it all? This recipe can be prepared using only one bowl: easy does it! For this recipe, we’ve used a so-called flax-egg and Queal STEADY vegan, which makes the recipe fully plant-based. If you want to, you can perfectly make it using a regular egg and Queal STEADY standard as well. "
