I was very curious if the black bean flavour would be noticeable and I must say I don't think I could have guessed the main ingredient. These brownies are very moist, there is no flour in the recipe and I found the banana and cinnamon to be the dominant flavours. Next time I make these, I'll increase the amount of cocoa and cut back on the cinnamon. On the upside, they were extremely simple to make, everything went in the food processor except for one ingredient at the end.

I'm not quite sure what to say about these. I've never made or eaten no-fat chocolate chip cookies before and they certainly don't taste like a typical cookie. They are more like little flat cakes. The flavour was fine but I miss the chewiness and traditional texture of a cookie with fat. I had trouble removing them from the pan even though I used parchment paper.

I liked the mix of spices; cumin, thyme, paprika, cayenne and pepper but I'm afraid this recipe fell down in the texture department. The burgers were mushy and fell apart very easily. I left them in the oven for an extra 12 minutes in the hopes of crisping and browning the outsides but the experiment was not very successful. I think something is missing from the ingredient list to help bind and firm these up.
