Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Combine the black beans, eggs, cocoa powder, quick oats, sugar substitute, coconut oil or applesauce, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt in a blender or food processor.
Blend until completely smooth. Scrape down the sides of the blender/processor as needed to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.
If using, stir in the dark chocolate chips after blending to add texture.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 equal squares.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
