Chickpea cookie dough was created to satisfy the craving to taste the raw dough of cakes and biscuits. Who has never stolen a little bit from the bowl while the grandmother or mother, and why not dad, baked some?
Traditional cookie dough can contain bacteria from eggs and flour and potentially cause problems if eaten raw. This recipe solves the issue. Chewy, delicious and gluten-free cookie dough made with chickpeas! It can also be used to bake cookies like the recipe for the classic chocolate cookies and can be kept for a few days in your pantry. Given the chickpea in the recipes this chickpea cookie dough is also a source of fibres.
