INGREDIENTS

0.5 cup chickpeas

1.75 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 tbsp almond butter

1 tsp maple syrup

0.5 tbsp dark chocolate chips

0.25 tsp vanilla extract

0.25 tsp baking powder

0.13 tsp sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  Rinse and drain the canned chickpeas, then pat them thoroughly dry with a paper towel to ensure a thick dough consistency.

• 3

  Combine the dried chickpeas, vanilla protein powder, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking powder, and sea salt in a food processor.

• 4

  Process the mixture on high until it is completely smooth and begins to pull away from the sides to form a dough ball.

• 5

  Transfer the dough to a small bowl and fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula.

• 6

  Divide the dough into four equal portions and roll them into balls, placing them on the prepared baking sheet.

• 7

  Gently press down on each ball to flatten it into a cookie shape, as these will not spread much during baking.

• 8

  Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are firm and slightly golden, then let them cool on the pan for 5 minutes to set before eating.
