Gluten free cookies made from chickpeas (yes…chickpeas!), peanut butter and nutella. A great source of protein for picky eaters!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had seen these Peanut Butter Chickpea Cookies<\/strong><\/a> doing the rounds on Pinterest for some time and I have to admit I was a tad sceptical myself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Could you really make a decent tasting cookie<\/strong> from chickpeas<\/strong>? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only way to find out was to try myself and so I adapted The Texanerin’s recipe to UK measurements and also decided to fill the cookies with a dollop of nutella<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was worried the cookies may be a bit dry so I thought some melted nutella might counteract this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I shouldn’t have worried however, the peanut butter has enough fat to keep the cookies very moist<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the melting nutella centre <\/strong>was a winner nonetheless and I’ll be keeping that addition to the recipe every time I make these in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So…have I convinced you yet? If you are still a little sceptical why not give them a whirl. Love them or hate them, come back and let me know how you got on. I’d love to hear your thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
