Ingredients
1cupPitted Dates
1cupBoiling Water
1can No Added Salt Black Beans,drained and rinsed
⅔cupUnsweetened Cocoa Powder
1teaspoonVanilla Extract
2-3tablespoonOat Flour or Ground Oats(gluten free if needed)
¼cupChopped Pecans or Chocolate Chips(optional)
Instructions
Place boiling water and pitted dates in a bowl and cover for about 30 minutes to an hour, so the dates can soften.
Meanwhile, if you don’t have oat flour, toss about ¼ cup of oats in a spice grinder, and grind until smooth. Set aside.
In a high speed blender or food processor, add the dates and soaking water, black beans, cocoa, and vanilla. Process on high until smooth.
Scoop the dip into a bowl. Stir in oat flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dip reaches a consistency you like. Remember it will get a bit thicker as it cools.
Stir in chopped pecans or chocolate chips, if desired.
Serve with fresh fruit, small cookies, or eat by the spoonful!
