Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

 Don’t judge these chocolate chip cookies by their ingredients!  They are soft, sweet, chewy and gooey despite having no sugar, no eggs, and being gluten-free.  I’m seriously addicted to them!  The last 2 dozen made it straight from the oven and into my belly.  Poor guys.  They never stood a chance!

Since I make these almost on a weekly basis, there are a few tricks I’ve learned.  First, you must have a quality blender like my beloved Vitamix!   The garbanzo beans will chunky if you do not use a great blender.  Also, put the honey and vanilla at the bottom of the blender before the garbanzo beans.  This will make it easier to blend.

Also, you need natural peanut butter like Adam’s All Natural PB where the only ingredient is peanuts.  Other peanut butters will make your cookies really oily.  Don’t even try with regular peanut butter!  You can also freshly grind peanuts at most grocery stores and make your own peanut butter.

I also have fallen in love with Lagrima pure vanilla.  I use to purchase pure vanilla at Costco until I was introduced to what ‘true and pure’ vanilla really tastes like.  I was skeptical this vanilla made that big of an impact, but after adding it to these gluten-free chocolate chip cookies and several other recipes, I’m a believer!  It’s worth the investment.  Well, my friends, I’m off to finish the last couple remaining cookies.  I’m proud that I refrained myself enough to finish this post.

  1. The chickpeas and garbanzo beans in these healthy cookie recipes have always deterred me from trying them, but maybe I’ll finally make some!

    1. I know it sounds scary, BUT I promise you can’t even taste the garbanzo beans! I had my husband, his brother, and good friend taste them without knowing the ingredients and they loved them. I’m excited to hear what you think!

    2. You can no more taste the chickpeas than you can taste the wheat in a regular cookie. Chickpeas are a neutral tasting “seed”, as is a kernel of wheat.

  2. Just wondering… how do you store these? Do they need to be in the fridge or just in a tupperware on the counter? Thanks!

    1. Great question, Sarah! I just put them in a zip-lock bag on the counter. You could refrigerate them. I bet they’re tasty cold. Confession… I seriously eat them within a couple days. Refrigerate if you still have some after a week.

  3. I like putting coco powder in them too. I love chocolate. I have to let the dough sit for a while before I put the chocolate chips in because the mixture is so warm after blending it all.
