Blitz the beetroots to a puree, add the eggs, sweetener and vanilla extract. Using an electric whisk, whisk together until light and fluffy.
Sieve in the flour and cocoa powder a little at a time and fold in using a metal spoon. Once all the flour is folded in fold in the chocolate chips. Pour into the prepared cake tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 25-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the brownies comes out clean.

Tried this today for taster session tomorrow. I have a little soggy bottom so I think the beetroot was too big, however, I added a shot of espresso powder, and a sprinkle of hot chilli powder & a touch of Birdseye chilli flakes Not too bad at all Mel. Another success. Thank you, my taste buds applaud you…
