Flourless Chickpea Peanut Butter Cookies
I know it sounds strange, but these Flourless Chickpea Peanut Butter Cookies are super delicious. They’re made with chickpeas, peanut butter, and lightly sweetened with maple syrup or agave. They’re naturally gluten-free + vegan and a tasty and healthy alternative to regular peanut butter cookies.
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, drained well, rinsed
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup oats
- Chocolate Chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Cover a baking tray with grease-proof paper.
- Blend the chickpeas in a food processor until smooth. Add peanut butter, honey, vanilla to form a smooth paste.
- Transfer to a bowl, stir in the salt, oats and chocolate chips (optional). Mix until well combined.
- If the mixture seems extremely wet, you can add a little more oats or wait a few minutes to allow the oats to absorb some liquid.
- Roll the cookie dough mixture up into small balls, spread out evenly on the baking tray and press cookies down with a fork to flatten.
- Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden.
- Best served warm from the oven. They will store in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
