Healthy Gluten Free Peanut Butter Blossoms
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and dried
- 1/2 cup runny peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp oat flour (unless you use non runny pb like jif)
- Pinch of salt (only if your pb doesn't have it in it)
- Vegan dark chocolate (ideally vegan choc drops if you can find them)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°
Rinse chickpeas with a colander and lay flat on a sheet of paper towels, then pat the top dry with more paper towels
Add all ingredients except chocolate to a food processor and blend until smooth and starts to ball up, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides
Form quarter-sized balls and flatten them with two fingers, noting that these cookies will not rise or spread out so shape them as desired
Bake for 7 to 10 minutes and, while they bake, cut the chocolate into squares or drops
Take them out of the oven and add the chocolate drops
