Ingredients

  • 1 15- Ounce Can Chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 1 Cup + 2 Tablespoons Oat Flour
  • ½ Cup Nut Butter
  • ½ Cup Maple Syrup
  • ¼ Cup Lemon Juice
  • 2 Tablespoons Lemon Zest
  • 1 Tablespoon Flax + 2 Tablespoons Water
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a brownie pan with parchment paper.
  • Make the flax egg by combining the ground flax and water. Let it sit for a few minutes.
  • Add the chickpeas, oat flour, nut butter, maple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, flax egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt to a food processor. Process until the chickpeas are blended fully and all the ingredients are combined.
  • Spread into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the pan comes out clean and the blondies feel firm to the touch. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing. Cut into 9-16 bars. Enjoy!
