Pumpkin Brownies (2 ways)

Don’t forget to follow my Instagram, @thekellydiet, for more recipes not posted on the blog! Like these ‘Soft, Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies!’

Now for some brownies!

I made two Pumpkin Brownie versions.

1) One is fluffier, lower in sugar and a good healthy option even for breakfast!

2)The other is fudgier and more dessert like.

Both are:

• 100% vegan
• Rich in nutrients from the pumpkin 
• Filling
• Protein & fiber packed
• Delicious!

You can add chocolate chips or nuts to your batter. Top these baked brownies with nut butter or non-dairy whip cream. However you like your brownies, make them your own!

• 1 c organic pumpkin puree
• 1 ripe banana
• 3 T raw local honey or pure maple syrup
• 1 1/2 c garbanzo bean flour
• 1/4 c raw cacao powder

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Spray an 8×8 pan with olive oil spray & set aside.
3. Add all dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl & whisk
4. Add your wet ingredients to a medium sized bowl & whisk.
5. Pour your wet into dry & mix until combined.
6. Pour batter into tin & bake for 25 minutes.

The more dessert like brownies I used whole wheat flour. I finally found a whole wheat flour that has just as much protein & fiber as other coconut and garbanzo bean flours! It’s Prairie Gold Whole Wheat Flour. I found it at Sprouts. It can also be bought on Amazon.
