Why Chickpeas?
- Nutritional Boost: Chickpeas are high in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, making these brownies more filling and nutritious.
- Fudgy Texture: Blended chickpeas create a smooth, dense texture similar to traditional brownies.
- Neutral Flavor: Chickpeas take on the flavor of cocoa and other ingredients, so you won’t taste them.
Variations
- Add-ins: Swirl in almond butter, sprinkle with crushed peanuts, or add dried fruit for extra texture.
- Gluten-Free: Ensure all ingredients, like baking powder and chocolate chips, are certified gluten-free.
- Extra Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter brownie, add 1–2 tablespoons of coconut sugar or brown sugar to the batter.
