Loaded Chickpea Blondies Recipe By Tasty Food

CHICKPEA BLONDIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two opposing sides.
• Pat the chickpeas dry between a clean kitchen towel, then transfer to a food processor. Add the almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder, baking soda, salt and reserved aquafaba (liquid from the canned chickpeas). Process until the mixture is very smooth, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula as needed, about 2 minutes. Add the almond flour and pulse to combine. Carefully remove the food processor blade, then stir in the 1/2 cup chocolate chips with a rubber spatula until evenly incorporated.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons chocolate chips. Bake until the edges are golden brown, the top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few small crumbs, about 30 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then use the parchment overhang to transfer to the wire rack. Let cool completely, then slice into 16 squares. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

LOADED CHICKPEA BLONDIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease an 8-inch square glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
• In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, peanut butter, sugar, egg yolks, cream cheese, vanilla, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and allspice. Purée until smooth and well-combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl at least once, 1-2 minutes.
• Use a rubber spatula to scrape the mixture into a medium bowl. Add the chocolate, walnuts, and raisins and stir to combine.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and spread as evenly as possible, all the way to the corners of the dish.
• Bake the blondies for 22-24 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 30-45 minutes before slicing, to allow the blondies to set.
• Slice into 9 or 12 pieces, then serve.
• Enjoy!
