Low-Fat Apple Brownies

Procedure:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Spray a square non-stick baking pan (8 inch x 8 inch) with non-stick cooking spray.
Whisk the egg whites and then combine the rest of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, blend well. Pour batter into pan and bake 20-30 minutes until cooked. To test if batter is cooked, insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, brownie is cooked. Remove from oven and let cool for five minutes in pan.

My Review

I love these brownies. They're not too sweet, but they have a great , natural taste to them. They're unique and very addictive, and the best part of them is that they are low-cal AND fat-free. Pretty sure they have a few carbs, but in the end, I would say these brownies are pretty forgiving. :)

It's hard to find canned apple which is not laden with heavy sugar syrup here :(. But on the contrary, fresh sour apples are plenty and grown locally.
