These Double Blondie Brownies are the perfect solution when you can’t decide whether to make Blondies or Brownies.
I decided to combine blondies and brownies together and the results speak for themselves – the best of both worlds!
These Double Blondie Brownies are thick, fudgey and ultra gooey, bursting with chocolate chips! They’re completely vegan, flourless and gluten-free too.
You’d NEVER guess the secret ingredient in here is actually chickpeas – they add such a fabulously thick texture while also providing fibre and protein to this recipe. Meanwhile the almond butter provides a gorgeous flavour to the blondies as well as a boost of healthy fats.
Double Blondie Brownies (Flourless, Vegan, GF)
Makes about 10 blondie-brownies
Ingredients
- 1 tin (400g) chickpeas, rinsed
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 2 tbsp sugar or sweetener
- 1/2 cup almond butter (or other nut butter)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp cacao powder or cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp ground oats (I blitz porridge oats in my food processor)
Method
-
Pre-heat oven to 175 and line a brownie tin with baking paper.
-
Add the chickpeas to a food processor with all ingredients apart from cacao powder, ground oats and chocolate chips.
-
Blend until smooth, then transfer half of the mixture to a bowl and add half the chocolate chips.
-
Add the cacao powder and oat flour to the remaining mixture in the food processor and blend until thoroughly combined.
-
Transfer the brownie mixture from the processor straight into the lined baking tin. Flatten the top with the back of a wooden spoon, then spread the blondie mixture on top and sprinkle over remaining chocolate chips for decoration.
-
Bake for 18-20 minutes, then allow to cool for 15 minutes before slicing into squares and serving!
