Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (smooth and unsweetened)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, combine chickpeas, peanut butter, maple syrup (or honey), baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until completely smooth.
  3. Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden around the edges.
  6. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Swap peanut butter with almond or cashew butter for a different flavor.
  • Use sugar-free chocolate chips or reduce sweetener for a lower sugar option.
  • Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for extra flavor.
  • Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes before baking for a firmer texture.
  • Store in an airtight container with a slice of bread to keep cookies soft.
