Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
  • 1 15-oz can chickpeas (low sodium), drained and rinsed well
  • ¼ c. rolled oats (certified gluten-free if needed)
  • ¼ c. pure maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
  • 2 T. almond butter
  • 2 T. tahini (or 2 more T. almond butter)
  • 2 t. vanilla extract
  • ¼ t. sea salt
  • ⅓ c. vegan chocolate chips (I prefer mini chips)
  • ----------------------------------------------
  • Sliced apple and graham crackers for serving
Instructions
  1. Combine all dip ingredients except chocolate chips in a food processor until smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides once or twice.
  2. Add all but about one Tablespoon of the chocolate chips into the food processor and pulse a few times to incorporate.
  3. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, lightly cover, and place in the fridge at least one hour to chill and thicken a bit.
  4. Before serving, sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top of the dip so your guests can tell what it is.
  5. Serve with apple slices and graham crackers, or eat with a spoon!
Notes
You can serve this dip without chilling it in the fridge first, but I've found that it's much more cookie dough-like when it is cold and thick.

You can try making this in a blender if you don't have a food processor, but it will be much more difficult.

This dip keeps in the fridge about 4 days (but I doubt it will last that long!).
