Fudgy center, rich chocolaty taste, and crunchy edges, these Fudgy Chickpea Brownies are super good. Also, these taste nothing like Chickpeas.
So forget thinking that healthy food is boring because these Healthy Brownies surely do not taste healthy 😂

Healthy Chickpea Brownies are my favorite Vegan and Gluten-Free Brownies.

🤤 The Best Vegan Fudgy Brownies

I have been wanting to make Vegan Brownies for years. However, most of the time, it never got baked to perfection, or they were extra moist and gooey or they just fell off and almost never hold the structure.
So after about 5-6 failed attempts at making Vegan Brownies, I finally had just let it go.
Then I recently made my Vegan Almond Flour Brownies and I loved those. They were Vegan but still got baked to perfection and were absolutely fudgy and decadent.
Have you tried my Eggless Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake Swirl Brownies or Eggless-Flourless Chocolate Fudge Cookies or Crinkletop Banana Brownies

I realised the reason for crumbly Brownies was the fact that I used to overmix the ingredients. The number 1 tip to get fudgy brownies is to not overmix the ingredients.

What makes these brownies so fudgy are the Chickpeas. Its just so good. You should definelty give this a try!
🥘 Ingredients

- Chickpeas - Canned Chickpeas which are rinsed and drained or Dry Chickpeas which have been soaked overnight, rinsed, and drained.
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder - The secret to really good Brownies is to use Dark Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder. It's unsweetened and brings out the best chocolate flavors.
- Flax Eggs - This is such a savior while making Vegan Brownies, you only need to combine ground Flax Seeds with Warm water, let rest for 3 minutes, and then use it.
- Baking Soda - The only leavening agent required for these Brownies
- Almond Flour - This brings the best nutty taste in these Brownies.
- Coconut Sugar - Coconut Sugar is to sweeten these Brownies
- Almond Milk - Just a bit of Almond Milk to combine everything together.
- Almond Butter - Or use any Nut Butter like Peanut Butter or Cashew Butter to make fudgy Brownies
- Vegan Chocolate Chips - To top the Brownies
All the quantities are mentioned below. Watch the video for a quick visual.
🍽️ Instructions
STEP 1: Blend in the food processor

STEP 2: Layer the Brownie Batter

- Transfer the Brownie Batter to a lined brownie baking dish.
- Even out the top with an offset spatula
- Throw in the Vegan Chocolate Chips over them
- Bake @ 345 F or 180C for 30 minutes.

📋 Variations
- You can replace Flax Eggs with Chia Eggs. Just use ground Chia in place of Flaxseeds.
- You can melt Vegan Chocolate Chips with Vegan Butter and then fold the dry ingredients in it. However, just to make it easier, I have skipped this step and blended everything in the food processor.
- You can use Peanut Butter to make Peanut Butter Chickpea Brownies
💯 Top Tips

- If your Brownies aren't fudgy enough you can add some oil in the batter. You can use Canola Oil or Olive Oil.
- To make softer Brownies, you can add more Non-Dairy Milk into the batter
- After the Brownies get baked, allow them to stand in the hot pan for 10-minutes. This time allows the Brownies to set perfectly.
- Process everything in the food processor for long enough so that these Garbanzo Beans get smooth.
