Directions

1 Preheat oven 176C | 350F. Line a 8×8 inch baking pan with baking/parchment paper and set aside.
2 Throw chickpeas, oats, peanut butter, maple syrup (or honey if using it), sugar, baking powder, salt and milk into a food processor and blend until smooth. Remove the lid, scrape the sides down with a spatula and process/blend for a further 2 minutes until smooth. (The batter will be thick. Do not add extra liquids). Fold in half of the chocolate chips.
3 Pour into prepared pan and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top of bars.
4 Bake for approx 20-30 minutes (depending on your oven) until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
5 The blondies are super moist when taken out, but they will set and firm as they cool. Don’t over cook these – or they will become dry.
6 Once cooled, gently cut into 16 bars.
