Chocolate Chickpea Cookies

I have been experimented with gluten and sugar free cookies and came across a post for chickpea cookies. I thought it was worth giving a try, I was a little dubious but they actually came out well and even the other half approved. 

Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained
  • 1/2 Cup of cashew butter (or you can use other nut butters)
  • 1/4 Cup of Honey
  • 1/4 Cup Cacao powder
  • 1/2 cup of Raisins 
  • 1 TBSP hot water

  1. Blend the chickpeas into a smooth paste
  2. Add the cashew butter and honey and blend until combined.
  3. Mix the cacao powder with the hot water to form a smooth paste. Add to chickpea mixture.
  4. If the mix is looking a little stodgy, add some more hot water. Likewise if the mixture is not sweet enough, add more honey or some sweetener.
  5. Add raisins.
  6. Place round cookie shape balls onto a lined baking tray and bake at 180 degrees for 15minutes.
