Vegan Chickpea Blondies
These delicious blondies from
are the perfect treat to satisfy your sweet-tooth cravings without undoing your training progress. They’re made with a handful of incredible ingredients and sweetened with agave syrup, which has a lower glycemic index than sugar and won’t spike blood sugar levels as much. Ideal if you’re trying to cut out those sugar crashes after snacks and desserts.If you’re not usually a baker, don’t be put off — this minimum-fuss recipe takes a matter of minutes to prepare. It’s basically as easy as putting everything in a blender and switching it on. Yep, really.
Plus, when the result is a batch of blondies that are as irresistibly gooey and moreish as this, it’s so worth it.
