Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Bars

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray.

Step 2

Blend the chickpeas, peanut butter, maple syrup, honey, vanilla, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a food processor until smooth. Pour into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

Step 3

Sprinkle with desired amount of chocolate chips! (Or if you would like to mix some into the batter, go for it!) If you like a sweet-and-salty flavor, like I do, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the top.

Step 4

Bake until golden brown around the edges, about 18 minutes.

Step 5

Let cool, then cut into 16 squares.
