Lentil Brownies

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Here is a sneaky way to try incorporating some lentils into your foods that even the pickiest eater won’t know suspect.

Recipe courtesy of www.lentils.ca

What you need:

back_brownies½ cup butter or margarine
½ cup lentil puree*
¾ cup cocoa
2 cups sugar
¾ tsp salt
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts (optional)

How you prepare:

1.  Melt butter; mix in lentil puree, cocoa, sugar and salt. Add eggs, one at a time. Mix in vanilla, flour, chocolate chips (and walnuts).

2.  Bake in a greased 9 x 13 pan at 350° F (175° C) for 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

*Lentil Puree: Place cooked or rinsed & drained canned lentils into a food processor. For every 1 cup lentils, add ¼ cup water. Blend to make a smooth puree with a consistency like canned pumpkin. If needed, add additional water 1 tbsp at a time.

Success Stories

What more can I say? Andrea has assisted me achieve goals I never thought possible. It sounded so simple. It also worked. Not only have I lost those first 20 pounds and lowered my blood pressure, but I’m well on my way to losing another 20 pounds and I have much more energy too. I feel healthy and great!
