  • 1 (15-ounce)can white beans, drained and rinsed (such as Great Northern)
  • 2 eggs
  • ½cup brown rice flour
  • ¼cup peanut butter
  • ¼cup melted coconut oil

  • ¾cup chocolate chips, divided
  • ¼cup toasted and chopped pecans
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°, and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
  2. In a food processor, pulse sugar to refine the texture to a smaller grain. Add the beans and eggs, and blend for a few seconds. Add rice flour, peanut butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla, baking powder, ground flaxseeds and salt. Blend until very smooth, about 2–3 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, mix in ½ cup chocolate chips.
  3. Pour batter into prepared baking dish, and spread evenly. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips and pecans.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes or until the top of the batter is dry and starts to pull away from the sides (or when a toothpick comes out clean). Remove from oven, and let cool for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
