Choc Chip Chickpea Blondies

I was recently visiting my sister in Australia and finally got try one of the blondies she’s always telling me about. They were delicious!

I tried making them as soon as I got home, and being a big fan of cinnamon, I decided to add some cinnamon to the blondie recipe. This slight tweak to the recipe made the blondies remind me of my favourite soft batch cookies as a kid. I will definitely be making more of these. Yum!

Choc Chip Chickpea Blondies:

• 1.5 cups cooked chickpeas
• 3/4 dates (soaked if not medjool dates)
• 1/4 cups oats, ground into flour
• 1/4 cups nut butter (I used cashew butter)
• 1/2 cups chocolate chips
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 3/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/8 tsp baking soda

1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor except for chocolate chips. Mix should be smooth.
2. Transfer mixture to a bowl, add chocolate chips and mix thoroughly.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 mins.
4. Try not to eat them all at once!
