Easy Beet Brownies

Vegan Beet Brownies PinWe used to buy Beet Brownies far more than we should have at Beet Box Bakery & Cafe, a vegan bakery that used to be walking distance from us when we lived in Uptown. If you’re in Denver, you have to try this place. They have amazing bread, sandwiches and desserts.

One day, instead of walking to Beet Box, Amelia decided to make some Beet Brownies from scratch and boy were they delicious. These brownies are so moist and chocolatey that you might have to put them behind lock and key or they won’t last a day!

Beet puree makes a great binder so it’s a good egg replacer in baked desserts. It’s also naturally sweet, so combined with the maple syrup in this recipe, you get a very rich brownie.

If you don’t have a non-stick baking pan,  you may want to use a little cooking spray or oil to grease the pan. Just spray a tiny amount down the middle and use your fingers to spread it over the bottom and sides. Or, put a tiny amount on a paper towel as shown in the video and use it to lightly coat the baking dish.

Easy Vegan Black Bean Brownies

Easy Vegan Black Bean BrowniesAmelia made these delicious Easy Vegan Black Bean Brownies by replacing the eggs with black beans. I know. I know. That sounds odd. But trust me, you can’t taste the black beans at all. You only taste the chocolatey goodness.

They’re very moist and tasty, but not as rich as non-vegan brownies. Personally, I like them better. Sometimes rich foods don’t agree with me and you get all that extra fiber and protein from eating a friggin brownie!

This recipe uses a vegan brownie mix, which will save you some time over making it from scratch. If you want this to be gluten free, oil free and soy free, be sure to look for that on the label. The Enjoy Life Brownie Mix is free from just about everything.
