Chickpea Blondies

1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
heaping 1/8 tsp salt
2 packets stevia or 2 dropperfuls liquid stevia
1-2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup ground flax
3 tbsp applesauce
1 tbsp almond butter
1 square semisweet or unsweetend baking chocolate, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend all ingredients (except chocolate) until very smooth. Mix in chocolate, and scoop into a greased (or tinfoil-lined) 8×8 pan. Bake for 38-40 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)
