Time 2h15m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 (14 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
½ cup rolled oats
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup olive oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
3 cups blueberries
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup cold water
1 ½ cups rolled oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place chickpeas, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, and salt in a food processor. Blend to a dough-like consistency; press into an 8x11-inch baking pan.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until crisp and lightly browned, 20 minutes.
  • Combine blueberries, white sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan; cook over medium-low heat until blueberries have reduced, 10 to 15 minutes. Whisk cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; stir into blueberry mixture. Cook until mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour blueberry mixture onto the cooked crust.
  • Mix 1 1/2 cup rolled oats, flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda together in a large bowl until bread crumb consistency. Sprinkle over blueberry mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until blueberry filling is bubbling and crumble topping is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Cool and cut into squares. Store leftovers in refrigerator.
