* 1 1/2 cups chickpeas (1 can, drained and rinsed) (250g)
* 3 T nut butter (or other fat source) (see nutritional-info link below for fat-free option)
* 3/4 tsp baking powder
* 1-2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/8 tsp baking soda
* heaping 1/8 tsp salt
* 3/4 cup brown sugar*
* 1 T unsweetened applesauce
* 1/4 cup ground flax (20g) (see nutritional-info link below for substitution options)
* 2 and 1/4 tsp cinnamon
* optional ingredients: a pinch cream of tartar, raisins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend all ingredients until very smooth, and scoop into a greased (or tinfoil-lined) 8×8 pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes. You want the blondies to look a little undercooked when you take them out, because they’ll firm up as they cool, and you don’t want them to get hard. (Note: you can probably sub any white bean for the chickpeas)

Serving Size: Makes 16 squares
