Author's Notes

I highly recommend using a food processor. It will definitely make your life easier.

Blondies can be stored at room temperature for 2-3 days. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 week and can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Both canned chickpeas and chickpeas cooked from scratch can be used.

step 1
Preheat the oven to 355 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 2
Soak your Pitted Dates (1 1/2 cups) in hot water for about 20 minutes to soften them. If your dates are moist enough, you may omit this step.
step 3
Place the Old Fashioned Rolled Oats (1/2 cup) in a food processor or high-speed blender and pulse until flour-like consistency forms. Depending on your blender or food processor, it should take less than 1 minute.
step 4
Add in the Peanut Butter (1/2 cup), Chickpeas (2 cans), Baking Powder (2 tsp), Vanilla Extract (1 tsp), Salt (1 pinch), and dates in the food processor or blender. Pulse until a smooth cookie dough texture forms. Add in some plant-based milk or water, a tablespoon at a time if the batter is too dry.
