Who doesn't love scraping cookie dough out of the bowl? Dairy-free, egg-free, and no-bake, this recipe can be enjoyed straight from the mixing bowl or frozen into cookie dough balls or bars. Even better, using blended chickpeas mixed with almond butter and sweetened with honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and dark chocolate chips keeps calories, fat, sodium, and sugar low while boosting protein and fiber. For an extra indulgent treat, drizzle them with melted chocolate and sprinkle flaked sea salt on top.

CHICKPEA "COOKIE DOUGH"



Chickpea

No one will ever guess that this "cookie dough" is made with a can of chickpeas! Eat as-is or roll into balls and freeze. You can add raisins, M&M's®, peanut butter chips, then roll them in coconut, powdered sugar, or cocoa. I added chocolate chips and chopped peanuts but the choices are endless.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender. This will make it much easier to grind the chickpeas and combine all of the ingredients until smooth.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through but still have a soft and chewy center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Chickpea cookie dough is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional cookie dough. It is made with simple ingredients and is easy to make. Whether you are looking for a vegan, gluten-free, or just a healthier cookie dough, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you are in the mood for something sweet, give chickpea cookie dough a try!
