INGREDIENTS
2 Cans 15oz / 400ml Chickpeas, in water
1 cup / 150g Chocolate Chips
METHOD
Pre-heat oven to 350F / 180C.
Drain and rinse the chickpeas then spread flat on an oven pan lined with greaseproof paper.
Bake for about 50-60 mins, tossing every 15 mins until bone dry.
Take out of the oven and place in a bowl with the chocolate and stir using the residual heat to melt.
Spoon the chocolate protein candy onto greaseproof paper using a dessert or tablespoon and chill to set.
They will last for several weeks in an airtight container if the chickpeas are dried thoroughly in the oven. I tend to keep in the fridge and enjoy protein candy within a few days just in case I left too much moisture in the chickpeas.
Equipment: Oven, Greaseproof/Parchment paper, Bowl
