How to Prepare Chickpea Chocolate Chip Bars [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a loaf pan with coconut oil. Set that aside while the oven preheats and while you make the dough.
- Into your food processor add the chickpeas, almond butter, syrup, extract, salt, baking soda, and powder. Pulse several times, until smooth and creamy.
- Add some chocolate chips into the mixture, reserving some to top the final product before baking and pulse a few times.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and then sprinkle the top with the remaining chocolate chips. You can add more or less, as you prefer.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. It may require more time depending on your oven temperature. Remove and let cool at least 20 minutes to set up.

These smell and taste fantastic. The maple syrup and vanilla really complement the chickpea flavor. Definitely keep them in the oven for longer than 40 minutes, the inside takes a while to cook through.
These are amazing. Amaaaaaazing.
I\’m all for people making allowances and substitutions in classic recipes for their dietary needs / restrictions… But I\’m not sure garbanzo beans are the way to go with brownies. Chickpeas can take on a sort of odd metallic taste when paired with deep notes like chocolate or coffee that most people wouldn\’t find very appealing. I think sweet potatoes would provide the starch you lose out on from omitting traditional flour, and would be a suitable flavor pairing, especially given that the recipe already contains maple syrup.
