Description
Flourless and gluten-free and naturally sweetened, chickpea blondies will become a family favorite dessert!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can, 15 oz Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup Peanut Butter
- 1/3 cup Maple Syrup or Honey (or a combination)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon, ground
- 1 Egg
- 1/3 cup Chocolate Chips +2 tablespoons for top
- Cooking Spray
Instructions
- Preaheat oven to 350° F. Spray an 8×8 inch pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a food processor, add all of the ingredients except chocolate chips and process until batter is smooth. This will take a few minutes to get the batter to a smooth consistency.
- Using a spatula, fold in the 1/3 cup of chocolate chips.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Tap the bottom of the pan onto the counter a few times to get the batter level. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips on top of the batter.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and the edges are slightly browned. Take care to not over cook! The blondies may look slightly underdone and that is okay.
- Allow blondies to cool for at least 10 minutes. Cut into squares and enjoy!
