Ingredients

Brownies
• 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats (or oat flour )
• 1 (15 oz) can of chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans) - liquid included
• 1/2 cup milk of choice
• 1/8 cup oil (I used canola)
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp granulated sweetener of choice
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 3/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
Frosting
• 1 cup hazelnuts
• 1/4 cup agave (or another sticky sweetener of choice)
• 2 Tbsp oil (I used canola)
• 1 Tbsp granulated sweetener of choice
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt of choice (I used Greek)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 F and grease or line with parchment paper an 8 X 8 square pan.
2. For the brownies: in a food processor or blender, add the oats (not necessary if using oat flour) and the whole can of chickpeas (liquid included). Blend until completely smooth.
3. Add to it the milk, oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract. Blend just until incorporated.
4. In a large bowl, add the cocoa powder, cornstarch, sweetener, baking powder and soda, and salt (and oat flour if not using whole oats). Whisk to combine.
5. Add the chickpea mixture to the dry ingredients and stir together until incorporated.
6. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 28-29 min. or until a toothpick inserted into the center has a little wet dough on it, but no crumbs.
7. For the icing: While the brownies are baking, add the hazelnuts, agave, oil, sweetener, and salt to a food processor or blender. Blend until completely smooth, scraping the sides as needed.
8. Transfer the smooth mixture to a large bowl, and add the yogurt. Whisk with an electric mixer or wire whisk until fully incorporated and a little fluffier (about 1 min with an electric mixer).
9. Place the frosting in the fridge to thicken up for at least 1 hour.
10. Allow the brownies to cool completely before frosting. Then, spread the thickened frosting on top of the brownies.
11. You can also garnish with more chopped hazelnuts or chocolate bits, slice up, and enjoy!
