Chickpea Brownies
This gluten and dairy-free dessert is absolutely delicious! This brownie does not disappoint. For a an indulgent touch, spread your favorite nut butter to the finished product just before serving.
Equipment
- Mixer
- 8×8 Pie Dish or Casserole Dish
- Parchment Paper
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1 Can Chickpeas, Drained and Rinsed
- 1/2 Cup Coconut Sugar
- 2 TSP Vanilla Extract
- 1/3 Cup Coconut Oil, Room Temperature Solid and soft but not Runny or Melted
- 1 Heavy Pinch Salt
- 1/2 TSP Baking Powder
- 1/2 TSP Baking Soda
- 1/4 cup + 1 TBSP Raw Cacao Powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Mix together all ingredients but the eggs in a stand mixer or use a hand mixer.
- Make sure the chickpeas are broken up and incorporated well until a batter begins to form.
- Break-in 3 eggs and incorporate on low until the batter is fairly smooth.
- Spray the parchment paper with oil and put it in the 8×8 dish.
- Pour in the batter on top of the parchment paper within the dish and allow the batter to make the parchment paper settle into the pan.
- Place it in the oven for 25-35 minutes.
- Give it a giggle test. If the center is still a bit wiggly, leave it in until it's firm.
- Once it has risen a touch and is cooked through, pull the parchment paper from the dish and place it (with the brownie still contained) on top of a cooling rack.
- Allow the brownie to cool down until warm to the touch, flip onto the cooling rack, and allow it to cool fully. This can take an additional 15-20 minutes until you can enjoy your treat.
- Once fully cooled, cut into squares and spread a tiny bit of nut butter on the top. You're welcome!
