Chickpea Flourless Chocolate Muffins – A healthy chocolate muffin that tastes rich and decadent. No one will know these are made without flour. Great for breakfast and dessert.  Bake a batch soon and taste the chocolate deliciousness! Enjoy!

 

When you read the ingredients in this recipe, you will probably think there is a typo; don’t worry, there isn’t. If you are looking for the flour, there is none (that’s right). Somehow I figured out how to make a healthy gluten free dessert and low fat muffin without using any kind of flour at all. Making a gluten free dessert is always a challenge when trying to keep the fat down, but you will never know these wonderful tasting muffins are low fat.

When I told my husband to try them, I started smiling and he said, “Oh no! What’s in these that you don’t want me to know about?” I told him to just try them. He loved them, but he still doesn’t know they were low fat and gluten free (and I don’t plan on telling him either). Anyway, give these a try and I bet they will be a big hit even with the fussiest of eaters.

Just a note, the batter is very thin; don’t think you made a mistake. They come out great every time, so go for it and enjoy!
