Flourless chickpea brownies with almond butter caramel

The weekend is finally here and what better way to celebrate than with these healthified, but beyond delicious chickpea brownies! ♥

I am going to spend my Saturday cleaning and doing laundry, which probably doesn’t sound like that much fun, but I am looking forward to getting it done and as a little reward I plan to bake a batch of these yummy brownies when I am done.

The recipe is from my cookbook Regnbuemad and it is my go-to for a healthier brownie option when I have guests over or when I just want to spoil myself a little, I love how it is so quick and easy to make and it tastes absolutely amazing while being full of good for you ingredients like chickpeas ♥

Make sure to check out another of my favorite dessert recipes from my cookbook right here and my favorite not at all healthy, but oh so good brownie recipe right here

1 deciliter (about 0.4 cup) coconut sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla powder
2 1⁄2 tablespoon cacao powder
1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt flakes
50 grams dark 70% chocolate, chopped

Almond butter caramel:
1 deciliter (about 0.4 cup) pitted dates
3-4 tablespoons almond butter
2 tablespoon akacia honey or pure maple syrup

Directions:

Start by preheating the oven to 175 c / 350 f. Then add all the ingredients, except the chocolate, to a food processor and blend until you have a smooth brownie batter. Stir in the chopped chocolate and pour the brownie batter into a brownie pan greased with coconut oil and bake it for about 25-30 minutes – it should not be completely baked through, so make sure to check it by sticking in a toothpick, if it comes out almost clean, but with a little moist crumbs/batter on it, then it is done – if it comes out clean then it has sadly already had too much and you risk it being dry.

Set aside the brownie pan to cool while you prepare the almond butter caramel.

Make the almond butter caramel by simply adding all ingredients to a foodprocessor and blend until you have a delicious creamy caramel.

Then cut the brownie into 9 slices and top them with half of the caramel and the chopped hazelnuts. Enjoy! ♥

Tip: Save the rest of the date caramel to use with other healthified treats (like my chocolate truffle cake with caramel popcorn) or try adding it as an indulgent topping to you morning oatmeal, it is such a delicious combo!

    Jeg synes den øverste topping bliver lidt for flydende, hvad gør jeg galt?

      Hmm det lyder mærkeligt, har du evt. brugt for meget mælk? Prøv at tilsætte lidt ekstra mandelsmør for at gøre den tykkere og mere cremet :)
