The struggle is real when it comes to finding delicious desserts that I can eat. Not only am I pretty strictly gluten free, I have also cut back on eating sweets as of late. You see, I have a bit of a sweet tooth and fall into the bad habit of consuming excess amounts of cookies and candy during the holiday season. This past year was no exception and with everything going on in my body right now I made the decision to cut out unnecessary desserts. Smart plan, right? Sure, until I’m hit with a major craving and give in to it.
Knowing that I would inevitably cave to the urge to eat sugar at some point, I began searching for ways to satisfy my cravings in a healthier way. I initially tried replacing cookies with fruit but that didn’t quite do the trick. Enter chickpea blondies. Yes, you read that right. Chickpea blondies.
