Black Bean Protein Brownies

10oz fat free refried black beans + 5oz black beans (or 1 16oz can black beans well mashed)
½ cup canned pumpkin + ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
¼ cup agave nectar (or other sweetener)
¼ cup xylitol (or other sweetener)
30g. protein powder
1 tbsp cinnamon
½ cup rolled oats
1 tsp vanilla extract

40g mini semi sweet dark chocolate chips (just over 2 tbsp)

1. Preheat over to 350F.
2. Mix first 8 ingredients together, plus half of the chocolate chips.
3. Spray an 8x8 pan with nonstick spray, and pour batter into pan.
4. Sprinkle evenly with remaining chocolate chips.
5. Bake in oven for 25 minutes, turn heat off and bake another 5 minutes.

These are pretty fudgey, if you want them a little less soft add an extra ¼ cup of oats. Cut them up once they have cooled.

Store these in the fridge!
