Ingredients
- 1 15 oz can of chickpeas rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp almond milk
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
- extra chocolate chips to sprinkle on top
Instructions
- Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Put all of the ingredients except the chocolate chips into the blender or a food processor. (A high speed blender like a Vitamix works great for a smooth consistency)
- After you’re finished blending, stir in the chocolate chips.
- Pour that mixture into a 8 or 9 inch glass/non stick baking dish. (We choose to use non-stick so you don’t have to grease it)
- Now you can sprinkle the chocolate chips on top
- Put the baking dish in the oven for 20-30 minutes until the edges begin to pull away from the pan. The top will also be golden brown and set.
- Let it cool for about 15 minutes before you cut into them. Enjoy!
