Healthy vegan brownie with chickpeas, chocolate and peanuts

There are recipes that surprise me, like this one healthy vegan brownie with chickpeas, chocolate and peanuts.

I have called it brownie because the texture is very similar, but it really only has the chocolate chips that I put on top. Another option would be to add 3 tablespoons of pure chocolate powder, but I'll do that version another day!

And I say that I am surprised, because I have always associated chickpeas to stews or savory foods, but for some time now I have been using legumes for sweet recipes, and they are wonderful! This way you get healthier recipes, providing all the nutrients, plus a lot of protein, which refined flours do not provide.

Change the chip and dare! You'll be amazed ....

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 jar of 400 gr of chickpeas cooked
• 3 tablespoons cream of peanut 100%
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 2 tablespoons of honey
• 1 tablespoon of panela or cane sugar
• 1 tablespoon of nut milk or vegetable milk (soy, oat...)
• 50 gr of dark chocolate 70% no sugar added
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1 teaspoon of yeast

STEP BY STEP RECIPE:

1. Preheat the oven to 180ºc.
2. In a blender, mix the chocolate and chop into small pieces or use dark chocolate pearls. Remove and set aside.
3. Add the chickpeas and mash for one minute.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients except the chocolate and blend again for another minute.
5. Grease a medium mold, or several small ones (I used two small ones of 15x10cm) and pour the dough. Then spread the chocolate pearls or chocolate chips on top.
6. Bake for 35 minutes.

And you already have this one ready healthy vegan brownie with chickpeas, chocolate and peanuts.
