Equipment

1 Food Processor or High-Speed Blender

Ingredients

1 15- oz can chickpeas
1 cup SunButter no sugar added
⅓ cup maple syrup or honey
⅔ cup vanilla protein powder or collagen

½ cup mini chocolate chips

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Add the chickpeas to a food processor or high-speed blender, and blend well until finally ground.
Add the SunButter, maple syrup, protein powder, and vanilla extract to the food processor and blend again until well mixed. You may need to stop the blender and scrape down the sides a time or two. Mix until a large ball forms.
Add the mini chocolate chips to the food processor and pulse a few times to distribute. Don’t over mix we will pulverize the chocolate.
Press the mixture into a square pan lined with parchment paper with your hands until flat. I like to place a piece of parchment paper over top to smooth it out. Refrigerate for at least two hours until firm.
When ready to enjoy, slice into 10 bars with a sharp knife and enjoy! Store the bars in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

Notes

Storing : These bars will stay fresh in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
