Chickpea Cookie Dough

Chickpea Cookie Dough Recipe
plant-based, gluten-free, refined sugar-free, vegan

Ingredients: 

• 1 can Chickpeas, drained and well rinsed
• 1/4 cup Nut or Seed butter of choice (peanut, almond, sunflower, etc., just make sure there are no added oils or sugar in the butter)
• 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
• 3 Tbsp Oat flour (use a coffee grinder to process old fashioned oats into flour)
• 2-3 Tbsp Pure maple syrup or raw honey
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 cup Cocoa nibs 

Instructions: 

1. Add all ingredients, except the cocoa nibs, to a food processor. Process until smooth and lumps removed from the dough.
2. Add more sweetener at this point if needed. An extra tablespoon of sweetener can also help create a smoother dough texture.
3. Transfer the dough to a large bowl and mix in the cocoa nibs. 
4. Store refrigerated in a sealed container. Enjoy by the spoonful, as a dip for fruit, i.e. apple or pear slices, or as a healthy frosting!
