Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Verwenden Sie einen leistungsstarken Mixer oder eine Küchenmaschine, um die Bohnen wirklich glatt zu pürieren – so wird die Konsistenz wunderbar cremig. Fetten Sie die Mini-Muffinform gut ein oder verwenden Sie Papierförmchen, damit sich die Brownie-Bites leicht herauslösen lassen. Ein Gummispatel hilft, das letzte bisschen Teig aus dem Mixer zu holen.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Für eine vegane Version ersetzen Sie die Eier durch Flachseier und wählen Sie Agavensirup sowie vegane Schokostückchen. Fügen Sie je nach Wunsch gehackte Nüsse hinzu oder lassen Sie sie für eine nussfreie Variante weg. Sie können das Rezept außerdem mit einer Prise Espressopulver anreichern, um das Schoko-Aroma zu intensivieren.

Serviervorschläge

Genießen Sie die Brownie-Bites pur, servieren Sie sie mit frischen Beeren, einer Kugel Vanilleeis oder tauchen Sie sie leicht in geschmolzene dunkle Schokolade. Auch mit einem Glas kalter Milch oder einem kräftigen Espresso passen sie wunderbar als Snack oder Dessert.
