Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 3 Tbsp water
  • 1 15.5 oz can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
  • 2/3 cup nut butter (almond, peanut, cashew)
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Make a flax egg by mixing ground flaxseed with water and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes.
  • Blend chickpeas, nut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, salt, and flax egg until smooth.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Scoop dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; gently flatten each cookie slightly. I make my cookies approximately 4 inches in diameter. 
  • Bake for 15 minutes (adjust cooking time as needed based on cookie size)— remove when centers still look slightly soft.
  • Let cool on baking tray 25 minutes to firm up and become chewy.
