This recipe is for healthy, fudgy and delicious Chickpea Brookies. These brookies are really easy to make, only require 10 minutes of your time and taste amazing. They are both vegan, gluten and sugar free. Since they’re made with healthy ingredients and are sugar free they are good to serve both for breakfast, afternoon snack or dessert.
Why choose between brownies and chocolate chip cookies when you can have both? The combination of brownies and chocolate chip cookies might be one of the best combinations ever invented. Don’t you agree? These chickpea brookies are really easy to make, are super fudgy, rich in flavor, delicious and healthy at the same time. They are perfect to make if you want a healthy high protein snack or dessert that still tastes like a regular one. And I promise, you won’t even notice that there is a single chickpea in them! These brookies are both vegan, gluten and sugar free.
A few tips:
- Make sure to blend the ingredients until you have a smooth batter. You don’t want to have any big chunks of chickpeas left. You might need to stop and scrape the sides a few times while blending.
- I used peanut butter when making mine, but you can choose any nut or seed butter you have at home or prefer. But it might impact the taste slightly.
- You can either use chocolate and chop it roughly or use chocolate chips.
- When the brookie is done in the oven the batter will still feel a bit loose and wet. It will become more firm when it has cooled down completely.
- Don’t cut the brookie until it’s completely cool. Otherwise it might break and it will also bee to loose to cut properly.
- These brookies are good to store in the fridge for up to five days.
- Store them in an airtight food container.
