Gluten-free Breakfast Brownies

January 15, 2023 By Sarah White No Comments

These healthy breakfast brownies are a Sunday staple in our house. They come together easily and taste super decadent, but are actually quite healthy! Full of fibre from beans & oats they’re basically oatmeal, but sexier (until the beans kick in). The perfect lazy Sunday breakfast in bed (until the beans kick in .. at which point I suggest that you get out of bed).

Breakfast Brownies (gluten-free, dairy-free)

Oatmeal + beans, in a blender, then bake. Easy beansy, and surprisingly delicious.
