Snickerdoodle Blondies. (Vegan, 72 calories a piece!)
-1 can chickpeas (240g drained), 3 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp apple sauce, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 tsp vanilla, 2 tsp cinnamon, 3/4 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/6 cup oatbran or flour.
- Put everything in to a food processor and blend until combined, producing a thick, fudgey consistency. Pour in to a tinfoil lined 8x8 tin and bake for 30-35 minutes at 175C/350F.
- Allow to cool for at least ten minutes before removing from the pan, as they firm up a little when cooling. They will still be relatively gooey when you take them out of the oven. Cut in to 16, enjoy!
These are surprisingly delicious. It just tastes like fudgey peanut-buttery cinnamon goodness. 6 people have tried them, and no one guessed there was chickpeas in there! :)
[Edit: Don’t reduce the sugar content. I made one with 3/4 cup, one with 1/2 cup, one with 1/4 cup and 1/4 cup was too savoury.]
