PRINT RECIPE
directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray an 8x8 baking dish with avocado oil spray (or vegetable oil of choice).
In a food processor, blend chickpeas, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and olive oil until smooth.
Add ground sumac, cacao powder, baking powder, baking soda, and gluten-free flour to the food processor and blend until mixed well.
Carefully remove the food processor blade and add the chocolate chips. Mix them into the brownie batter with a spoon.
Pour the brownie batter into the baking dish, spreading and smoothing the batter out so it reaches all sides of the baking dish.
Top with more chocolate chips if desired. Bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the brownies.
Allow brownies to cool before slicing into them and then enjoy!
expiry
Store brownies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can warm them up in the microwave slightly before eating them, if desired, but you may need to eat them with a fork!
tips
Wait for about 10 minutes or so before slicing into the cooked brownies so that they are easier to cut.
Top brownies with flaky sea salt for a sweet and salty flavor!
Our cacao powder has the more-prized high-fat content. This natural cacao powder will yield rich chocolatey flavor in baked goods. No sugars have been added to this raw ingredient.
