Chickpea cookie dough






















I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical stumbling upon this recipe but don't judge it too quickly based on it's major ingredient: Chickpeas. I walked around all day after I tried this recipe, forcing people to try and guess what it was they were eating. (I figured it was better to let them try in advance or they might not try at all, like my picky brother for example)

1 can of chickpeas (~250 grams)
1 dl oats 
1/5 tsp salt 
1/5 tsp baking powder 
2 tsp vanilla extract 
6 tbsp peanut butter 
3 tbsp oat milk 
4 pitted dates 
2 tbsp coconut sugar 
100 grams dark chocolate

Mix the chocolate in a food processor turning it into chocolate chips/Put the chocolate aside while you mix the rest of the ingredients and finalize by adding the chocolate back in. Easy pea-sy! (+1 for tacky joke) Stick it between two banana slices, in frozen banana-ice cream to make it somewhat B&J's-like or just munch away straight from the bowl. I can testify that it's good whatever way.
