Chickpea Jammers

Servings: 36

Ingredients

  • 1 can, 14 oz/398 mL chickpeas
  • 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup jam or jelly of your choice (I used raspberry jam)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Drain chickpeas and rinse well.
  • In a food processor, blend chickpeas until smooth and no large chunks remain.
  • In a large bowl, mix chickpeas, brown sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
  • In a medium bowl, mix whole-wheat flour, rolled oats, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.
  • Mixing throughout, slowly add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until completely mixed.
  • On the lined baking sheet, assemble small balls about the size of a golf ball. Use the back of a spoon to lightly press down the centre until there is a small well.
  • Back for 10-12 minutes, until the bottom is light brown.
  • Once baked, remove and lightly re-press the centre of each cookie to reinforce the small well.
  • Add a small scoop of jam to each cookie well, and enjoy.
