Unveiling the Secret to Chocolate Chip Chickpea Cookies: A Sur

Today’s Special: Chocolate Chip Chickpea Cookies

I’m excited to share a unique and delicious recipe with you today that combines two unexpected ingredients: chickpeas and chocolate chips. These cookies are a delightful twist on a classic treat, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth in a healthier way. Let’s dive into the kitchen and get started!

Ingredients:

• 1 can (400g) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1/2 cup (120g) peanut butter
• 1/4 cup (85g) honey
• 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp (2g) baking powder
• 1/4 tsp (1g) salt
• 1/2 cup (90g) chocolate chips

Kitchen Tools:

• food processor
• mixing bowl
• spatula
• baking sheet

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a food processor, blend the drained and rinsed chickpeas until smooth. Add in the peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Blend until all the ingredients are well combined and you have a thick dough-like consistency.

Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tip:

For an extra flavor boost, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking. The combination of sweet and salty is simply divine!

Once cooled, these Chocolate Chip Chickpea Cookies are ready to enjoy. This recipe makes approximately 12 cookies, with each serving weighing about 50g. One serving is approximately 150 calories.

I hope you give these unconventional cookies a try and share them with your loved ones. Feel free to get creative and make this recipe your own by adding nuts, dried fruit, or a drizzle of melted chocolate on top. Happy baking!
