Okay, these Oreo peanut butter brownies are not exactly healthy, but they’re insanely delicious!!! Besides, they’re super chocolatey, fudgy, and rich. Chocolate heaven, here I come!

Plus, they’re vegan and pretty easy to make. Oh, and except from the Oreo topping they’re even gluten-free. I know they sure don’t look like they’re gluten-free, but they’re made with black beans instead of flour.

So if you want these Oreo peanut butter brownies to be completely gluten-free and healthier, just leave out the Oreos and only top them with peanut butter, chocolate, and some peanuts.

Baking with beans might sound a bit crazy, but it actually isn’t! When I first heard of black bean brownies, I wasn’t exactly eager to try them. I just couldn’t believe that you could use them to make delicious chocolate brownies. But I was still kinda curious, so one day I thought what the heck why not just give it a try and see how it turns out. And let me tell you, those vegan black bean brownies totally blew my mind!

I posted my recipe for walnut black bean brownies on the blog last summer and the feedback I got was super positive. So I soon tried another bean recipe. That time with kidney beans: my chocolate hazelnut donuts aka. nutella donuts, which actually became one of the most popular recipes on the blog. Both exactly look, smell, and taste like normal brownies and donuts. Isn’t this just crazy?!

I already made the black bean brownies with walnuts for several birthday parties and family get togethers and they were always a huge hit. Even my 85-year-old grandma, who’s a passionate baker herself, just couldn’t believe how yummy they were. She’s always amazed when I tell her that I didn’t use any eggs and dairy but beans instead of flour?! This sounds downright crazy, but it really does work pretty well!

So this time I put my black bean brownie recipe to the next level and used more chocolate, peanut butter, and Oreos. I mean one can never get enough of chocolate and peanut butter, right? Haha!

I hope you like these vegan Oreo peanut butter brownies as much as we do! As always, I love hearing from you in the comment section or on Instagram. It always makes me so happy to see your Vegan Heaven creations on Instagram, so please keep sharing them with me. This really makes my day!

Hope you all have an awesome and sunny week! Sina – xx
