Ingredients:
1-15 ounce can of unseasoned black beans
5 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup honey plus 1/3 cup apple sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Chopped Nut topping

Equipment
Blender
Oven
8x8 baking pan

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 40 mins

Drain and rinse beans. Shake off excess water. Place beans, 3 of the eggs, vanilla, apple sauce and salt into blender. Blend on high until beans are completely liquefied. 

Whisk together cocoa powder, baking soda, brown sugar and baking powder. Add remaining two eggs, beating for a minute after each addition. 

Pour bean batter into egg mixture and mix. Finally, stir in cocoa powder and water (if using), and beat the batter on high for one minute, until smooth.
