I beg all of you, right now! Try these super easy to make and SUPER healthy chickpea cookies! YES! I said chickpea cookies!
Your kiddos will have no idea they are loaded with wholesome ingredients. The ripe bananas and hint of maple syrup give these amazing cookies all the sweetness they need. These healthy cookies have no refined sugar, making them a perfectly suitable breakfast item. Your kids will love to eat them, and so will you!
Okay,
I know what you’re thinking….chickpeas?? In cookies?? Really???
YES! REALLY REALLY!
I know it sounds interesting. But I’ve made these countless times and truly perfected this fool proof recipe. I’ve shared these cookies with all my friends and family and guess what? Not a single complaint! No, they aren’t just being nice. My nieces and nephews have no problem being brutally honest with me…maybe to a fault. 🙂
These cookies are scrumptious and perfectly healthy. Want cookies for breakfast? No problem! Now you can have your cookies, and eat them too! And with zero guilt attached!
So ahead and indulge in a few of these with your morning coffee!
Did I mention how EASY these cookies are to make?
Just add ALL of the ingredients to your food processor and process until smooth. My favourite kind of recipe! The prep work practically does itself.
Next, you will form your chickpea cookies onto a prepared baking sheet using a metal tablespoon. This recipe makes about 30 cookies, so use a large baking tray. I use a tablespoon and then gently slide the batter off with one finger. These cookies are truly quick and easy. So if you need dessert or breakfast ideas in a pinch, make this your go to! You won’t be disappointed, and your kids will thank you!
I know my kids have no problem eating cookies for breakfast. Well now they can and I feel good about the nutrients and wholesome ingredients they’re consuming! You can definitely make a double batch of these and freeze some for easy breakfasts during a busy work week. I’m personally always making a double batch of these because they just don’t seem to last long!
Want to take this recipe to the next level? Use homemade peanut butter rather than store bought. YUMM!

I can’t use oil and usually use the powdered peanut butter which is way lower fat. I wonder if these would turn out ok if I sub these ingredients.
Hi AJ, by replacing two of the liquid ingredients with powder, this will definitely alter the texture and consistency. It will need some liquid to balance out those substitutions. Without testing a brand new recipe, I can’t say for certain how that would turn out.
Oh, wow! Yes chickpea cookies sounds totally crazy! But so crazy that I absolutely have to try them!
Haha thanks Beth, enjoy!
