The Fudgiest Chickpea Brownies of your Life!

I made this recipe a few times before truly perfecting it, and now I am addicted! These are some of the best brownies you’ll ever try, they just happen to be vegan, healthy and made with chickpeas.

For this recipe, I decided to use almond flour just to make them even healthier. However, I did make these with regular all-purpose flour and it worked just as well. When choosing what flour to use, make sure to check moisture-absorbing capacities and baking time as each flour is different in chemistry.

There is really not much room to mess this one up. Start by measuring all of your ingredients and placing them on your working station in two sections, wet ingredients and dry ingredients. Then you simply start by pureeing all of your wet ingredients in the processor, then add the wet ones. Run this as many times as you need in order for the texture to be smooth. The batter should be thick, resembling a regular brownie mixture. Taste it to see if it is sweet enough for you. I do not have much of a sweet tooth so my dessert recipe will rarely be overly sweet.

Now place it in a square baking pan that has been greased, and bake for 20-25 minutes at 200C.

After you remove it from the oven, you absolutely must let the brownies cool before you add the toppings or do any handling. For your toppings, go crazy, add whatever you want. I melted some peanut butter and chocolate to make a glaze and finished it up with some walnut shavings.
