- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Pour chickpeas into a strainer, then rinse them for 15 seconds or so. Place chickpeas into a food processor and pulse for approximately 10 seconds.
- Add peanut butter, syrup, vanilla, and baking soda; pulse together. The mixture or “dough” should form a large ball in the food processor.
