The Amazing Chickpea is introducing two new Chickpea Dessert Mixes, including a chickpea cookie mix that’s nut-free, gluten-free and a healthier take on a comforting treat. The Chickpea Butter Cookie Mix provides three to four grams of protein and 140 calories per serving, offering an alternative that has the potential to support those following a particular diet or lifestyle out of preference or necessity.
Making the allergy-friendly cookies only calls for a few fresh ingredient additions like butter, or margarine, and water. Even without peanuts and tree nuts, the chickpea-based cookies are said to have a nutty flavor profile.
Alongside the Chickpea Butter Cookie Mix, The Amazing Chickpea is also introducing a Chickpea Fudge Brownie Mix as another better-for-you take on baked goods.
