Chickpea Protein Cake

Chickpeas, and protein powder - in a cake! Yes, it may sound bizarre, but this recipe is surprisingly easy to make and delicious. The chickpeas provide extra dietary fibre and protein, and add extra moisture and fudgey-ness.

We recommend baking in a square tin if you have one, and cutting in to squares. Substitute for bars or biscuits to get an extra protein boost during the day.

Ingredients

2 eggs - for a vegan version, use the aquafaba from the tinned chickpeas, or a mashed banana.
1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2C coconut milk
1/3 C oats
1/3 C almond meal
1/3 C Roam Vanilla Protein
1/3 C maple syrup (can opt for a sugar-free flavoured maple syrup)
3 Tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
Generous handful of choc chips (use dairy-free for a vegan version).

Method

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Depending on your blender, this could take a couple of minutes
  • Pour into baking dish and sprinkle with chocolate chips. We baked this in a round tin, but would recommend a square one - that way you can cut the cake into bars or squares.
  • Bake for 30-min at 200 degrees or until a knife comes out clean.
  • Store in an air-tight container in the fridge. Tastes great warmed up slightly.
