Chickpea Chocolate Chip Cookies
Report
Chickpea chocolate chip cookies are crispy outside with a soft, chewy middle and gooey chocolate chips in every bite, yet surprisingly healthy and wholesome + egg-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and oil-free!

Ingredients
- 1 (15-ounce) can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 medium banana, chopped
- ½ cup of applesauce
- ¼ cup of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- ¾ cup of flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- ½ cup semi-sweet vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and line a large baking tray with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
- To a food processor, add the chickpeas, banana, applesauce, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Process for one minute or until the chickpeas are pureed.
- In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.
- Add the dry ingredients to the food processor with the wet ingredients and mix until all ingredients are fully integrated.
- Fold in the vegan chocolate chips and using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop them onto the backing sheet.
- With wet hands or a lightly oiled spatula, flatten the cookies to about ½ inch thick.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the tray on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Then place the cookies to fully set on a cooling rack.

Notes
- Blend the chickpeas thoroughly: Process them to a smooth puree, like hummus.
- Don’t overmix the dough: Overworking the gluten in the cookie dough can affect the texture and spread of the garbanzo cookies.
- Flatten the cookies slightly: They don’t spread much, so it’s a good idea to flatten them to ½-inch thick before baking.
- Don’t overbake the cookies: Garbanzo cookies become dry but not more crisp, unlike regular cookies. It’s normal for them to look soft immediately out of the oven. They’ll firm up more as they cool.
