super moist, more dense than regular brownies. But rich and not super sweet. Use good quality chocolate!! Sprinkle with powdered sugar when done for extra sweetness. Also good with nuts mixed in!

Tips for Perfect Chickpea Chocolate Brownies:

  • For a smooth batter, blend the chickpeas until they are very smooth, with no lumps. You can use a food processor or a high-powered blender.
  • Use a good quality cocoa powder for rich chocolate flavor. Look for cocoa powder that is at least 70% cacao.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into squares. This will help them to hold their shape.

Chickpea chocolate brownies are a delicious and healthy way to satisfy your sweet tooth. They are made with simple, wholesome ingredients, and they are packed with protein and fiber. These brownies are also gluten-free and vegan, making them a great option for people with dietary restrictions.
