Flourless chocolate chip cookies, hence gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan, contain nothing but steamed chickpeas, ideally from a glass jar. I’ve added walnuts; these are the last of the dry ones, and in a month, we will have fresh ones on the market. I really did everything possible to please everyone, and I must add they are also delicious. I have a vegan friend intolerant to everything, and it’s hard to please her, but these cookies have convinced everyone. Everyone knows my passion for cookies, and I gladly try and experiment with new ones and improbable ingredients.

Steps to prepare chocolate chip cookies

  • To prepare the chocolate chip cookies, you only need a blender, so start by putting the rolled oats and walnuts in the blender jar and blend until they become flour, add the chickpeas and continue blending. Add the oil with the orange juice, baking powder with vanilla powdered sugar, grated lemon and orange zest, and blend again until the mixture is homogeneous. Add the chocolate chips and shredded coconut with a spatula outside the blender.

  • To prepare the cookies, I used an ice cream scoop, after making 15 balls, I flattened them with a cookie cutter and placed them on the baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Baked in the oven at 356°F for 20 minutes.

  • And here are my chocolate chip cookies, also gluten-free and vegan.

  • I always accompany my breakfast cookies with a delicious almond drink.

My name is Pina, and my passion is food and cooking in general. On the blog, I focus on regional dishes like those from my birthplace, Sicily. I also feature dishes from Lazio, the region that has hosted me for over 40 years, but in general, I cover all Italian regions. Traveling and exploring is my second passion, so I couldn't leave out dishes from around the "World" on my blog. My blog is divided into simple and essential sections like appetizers, first courses, main courses, side dishes, bread and leavened products, jams and preserves, wines and wineries, and of course, travels. Desserts are included, and finally, there is a dedicated corner for gluten-free options. Easy recipes, explained step by step and always updated.
