As some of you may know that read my Facebook posts, I have to cut down on my eggs. (It is more of an intolerance than an allergy) I used to make these cookies quite a while ago but had forgotten all about them. With some new tweaks they taste better than ever!
This is also another way to feed your children and yourself healthier snacks! Don’t tell your kids how healthy they are!! They may get angry at you for ruining their cookies 🙂     These would even be great in the morning for a quick healthy snack!
Chocolate Chip Chickpea Cookies (Grain Free/ Gluten Free/ Refined Sugar Free/ Dairy Free/ Vegan)
1 c. chickpeas or white navy beans (cooked, drained and rinsed)
1/2 c. natural nut, seed, or pea butter
1/4 c. honey (maple syrup for vegan)
2 tsp. vanilla- gluten free
1 tsp. baking powder- gluten free
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/3 c. dark dairy free chocolate chips or chunks
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Put all the ingredients into a food processor except the chocolate. Pulse until smooth scraping sides when necessary. Add in chocolate and pulse just a couple of times to mix in.
Drop dough by the teaspoon onto parchment paper lined cookie tray.
(These one are with natural Peanut butter)
Flatten slightly with fork. Bake for 11-13 minutes depending on how chewy you like your cookies. Makes 2 dozen one inch cookies.
(These ones are with my homemade Cashew Butter)

These are so amazingly delicious! I love that chickpeas are used 🙂 This recipe is definitely a keeper.
Thanks Sarah 🙂 So glad that you like them!!
These look GREAT! My 4 year old would love them. 🙂 Visiting from Traditional Tuesday.
Just don’t tell your four year old what is in them 🙂
Really really intrigued by this recipe – looks SO yummy! Will definitely give it a try and will pass it on to the mum of a gluten-intolerant friend of my daughter’s! BTW I’m visiting from “Tasty Tuesday Link Party”!
I have had several people try and love them. I just never tell people what is in them before trying them.
Such tempting cookies — I’d like to try one right now! I’m so glad I stopped by from GF Wednesday today —

They are quick and easy to make up 🙂
WOW!! My whole family really loved these cookies. Very simple to make and really taste good! Only difference was that ours took a little longer to cook than recipe … so we just kept an eye on them. Thank you very much for this great recipe …
I’m so glad that you like them 🙂
These look awesome! I love that you used pureed chickpeas!!
Thanks for sharing this on Waste Not Want Not Wednesday, I’ve pinned it 🙂
Is there another option to using the nuts? I am unable to eat any. Thanks
You can use a seed or pea butter.
So many yummy desserts in last week’s link up! These look great too!!
