Equipment

  • 9" square baking tray

Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 200 g chickpea flour
  • 30 g cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 4 tbsp GROUND flax seeds not the whole seeds
  • 8 tbsp water
  • 150 ml flavourless oil e.g. sunflower
  • 120 g white granulated sugar/caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 75 g of chopped chocolate/chocolate chunks
  • Optional: nuts

Instructions
 

Method:

  • Preheat oven to 160 celsius fan or 180 celsius conventional
  • Mix your flax seed and water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, it will start to become gelatinous and this will act as an egg replacer
  • Whisk oil, sugar and vanilla together, add your flax eggs and keep whisking
  • In a separate bowl mix together your chickpea flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa
  • Sieve the dry mix into your wet mix
  • Fold together, it will be quite a thick batter, and add in the chopped up chocolate/chunks
  • Pop into a greased 9" pan for 17 minutes. Use a spatula to help press this down.
  • To check these are done, insert a toothpick and there should be a few small bits of wet crumbs. Let this cool completely before cutting into.

Notes

ALSO, heads up, do NOT try the batter, raw chickpea flour is pretty unpleasant.
