Ingredients

4tbsp coconut oil, melted, plus extra to grease

200g NOMO Deliciously Dark Vegan & Free From Chocolate, chopped

2 x 400g tins Asda Black Beans in Water, drained, liquid from 1 tin reserved

2tsp vanilla extract

200g soft light brown sugar

80g cocoa powder

½tsp bicarbonate of soda

1tsp gluten-free baking powder

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Grease and line a 20cm square brownie tin.

Heat the coconut oil and chocolate in a small pan on low, stirring, until melted. Set aside to cool for 5 mins.

Meanwhile, put the beans and reserved liquid in a food processor with the vanilla, brown sugar, cocoa, bicarb and baking powder. Pulse until smooth; pour in the choc mixture and combine.

Pour into the tin; bake for 40-45 mins until a crust forms and the middle is set.

Cool in the tin then slice into 16. Dust with icing sugar, if using, to serve.
