Chocolate Chip Chickpea Muffins
Fluffy chocolate chip chickpea muffins made with garbanzo beans and blended in one step. A flourless, gluten-free snack the whole family loves.
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup cashew butter
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- To a blender or food processor, add the rinsed chickpeas, eggs, cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and has the texture of pancake batter – about 30 seconds. Stir in the chocolate chips, reserving some to top the batter with.
- Line 9 muffin cups with paper or silicone muffin liners.
- Scoop the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tray. Top with extra chocolate chips if you’d like.
- Bake for 23-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the muffins, and the muffins spring back when you press into the tops.
