These healthy vegan chickpea blondies<\/strong> with cherries are wonderfully moist, naturally sweetened with dates and banana, and built on a base of chickpeas and oats. Completely flourless, with no refined sugar \u2013 and still so good that nobody would ever guess how many wholesome ingredients are hiding inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summer is here! After a few days that felt a lot more like autumn around here, the sun finally showed up again today. So I grabbed my dog, hiked up a little hill with her, and then stretched out in the sunshine with a book. Bliss! And along with the good weather, summer brings something else I look forward to all year: summer fruit, like cherries!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love cherries<\/strong>. Preferably straight off the stem \u2013 but in ice cream or baked into something sweet they are every bit as good. I had also been meaning to try blondies made with chickpeas for the longest time, and as it turns out, cherries belong in these blondies as if they had been made for each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of sugar or syrup, these healthy blondies are sweetened entirely with fruit<\/strong>: banana and dates. The result is a wonderfully moist, fudgy texture<\/strong> and a natural sweetness.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n
