Number Of Ingredients 9

15 ounces of unseasoned black beans
5 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 cup honey
6 tablespoons dark Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease 9" cake pan and dust with cocoa powder, tapping to evenly distribute.
Drain and rinse beans. Shake off excess water.
I use handheld mixer to pulverize beans smooth.
Add in 3 of the eggs, vanilla, salt and continue mixing. When smooth, add in coconut oil and honey. Add in last 2 eggs.
In separate bowl, sift in cocoa powder, baking soda and baking powder and then add to the wet ingredients
Beat on high until you achieve a nice smooth consistency. Approx 1 minute.
Scrape batter into pan and rap on counter a few times to free any bubbles.
Bake for 40-45 minutes. Cake is done when top is rounded, firm to touch and toothpick comes out clean.
LET CAKE SIT OVERNIGHT IF POSSIBLE or at least 8 hours. It's not a ready-eat-right-away type of cake.
Frost with favorite frosting and enjoy.
