Chocolate Chip Chickpea Cookies

This is a super easy recipe for one of those days when you just need a cookie straight out of the oven

The wonderful thing about this cookie is that it tastes and smells like a normal chocolate chip cookie but has no flour or sugar. Doesn’t that just blow your mind?! I didn’t think this one would make it through my sweet tooth tasters, but they loved it!

This takes 5 minutes prep time and c. 15 minutes in the oven, making it quicker than ordering insomnia cookies on seamless (a Mr. B move when I am away…)!

Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas
  • ½ cup natural almond/peanut butter
  • 5 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ¼ dairy free milk
  • 1 tsp. gluten free baking powder
  • A pinch sea salt
  • 50g vegan chocolate chips (cacao nibs if you want no sugar and/or a textural contrast)

Method

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350c
  • Blend all the ingredients apart from the chocolate chips
  • Fold in the chocolate chips
  • Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper/baking parchment
  • Spoon the mixture onto the baking sheet, one heaped tablespoon per cookie and squish it down
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes until lightly brown
  • Serve warm or cool
