- 1 can or 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas or white beans
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup almond butter, or allergy-friendly sub
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, honey, or agave
- 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp quick oats or flaxmeal
- scant 1/4 tsp salt
- heaping 1/8 tsp baking soda (this gives a cookie dough flavor)
- 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Drain beans, rinse extremely well, and pat dry. Process all ingredients except chips in a strong food processor until completely smooth. Stir in chips. (Some readers say a blender works, but try that at your own risk, as the taste and texture will be much better in a food processor.) Cover leftovers and store in the fridge.View Nutrition Facts
