Chocolatey quinoa and Raw banana brownie

A shoutout for everyone who is craving for chocolaty yet healthy and tasty brownie to fulfil the sweet cravings. The dense, moist and chocolaty texture is not less or even better than the store brought brownies. It is high in fibre, resistant starch, proteins, micronutrients, prebiotics, and has a super satiating effect on the body as compared to other high fat, high refined sugar desserts available in the market. Enjoy the Guilt free binge with family and friends .
