Hi my darlings! How is your week going? I am back from my trip to Sweden with a new recipe!
Today I had very bad chocolate cravings and was longing for baking after a long (at least for me as a food blogger:)) break from creating new recipes. So I took my time and made these easy 5 minutes brownies made with chickpeas, dates, shredded coconut and some more healthy ingredients I had at home. I am very happy with the result and just wanted to share my new recipe with you all here today!
I love to create simple and healthy recipes based on only a few ingredients, and when I can, I add some chickpeas or something else with a lot of nutrients and protein;) I aldready shared one other brownie recipe here once, you can check it out here if you are interested!
This recipe is also gluten free and completly sugar free!
- 100% nut free
- 100% gluten free
- 100% vegan

I topped my brownies today with coconut chips and chopped vegan refined sugar free chocolate for the something extra!
I had a great time with my family in Sweden and already miss to be there. Will go back very soon for sure!:)
5 minutes no-bake brownies recipe:
you can easily double the ingredients if you plan to make these for more people.
Ingredients:
Brownies
- 80 g chickpeas (I cooked my own after soaking them overnight)
- 85 g dates, pitted and chopped
- 1 tbsp virgin coconut oil
- 40 g shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp cacao powder (raw or not, but should be unsweetened)
- pinch of vanilla and salt (if you dont use canned chickpeas that normaly are very salty)
Optional:
Frosting:
- 50 g dark vegan chocolate
- 50 g coconut cream
Method: Melt the chocolate in a water bowl and stir in the coconut cream slowly. Be sure it is well combined before speading it over the brownies.
Toppings:
- chopped vegan refined sugar free chocolate
- coconut chips or nuts
Method:
- Add all the ingredients for the base in a high speed blender or food processor and blend well. Blend some minutes until the batter is smooth.
- Spead and press down the brownie batter on a parchment paper. If you made the frosting you can spead it over the brownie cake. Add the toppings you like to add. Optional freeze a couple of minutes and than cut in pieces.
- Enjoy!!!!

I am sure these will not last long in my house, maybe until tomorrow! I am happy I managed to take some pictures before I eat them all;)
It is such a great thing to create new recipes when they turn out so perfect! Hope you all enjoy it and let me know if you have any questions or want to give some feedback!
Sending you all lots of love!!!
