Chocolate mocha chickpea cake
Cakes
During my pregnancy, while I was trying to reconcile my cravings for sweets with the daily protein requirements of my condition, I did everything I could to sneak as much protein into every morsel of food and was thrilled when I came across dessert recipes made mostly of chickpeas. This recipe is adapted from several that I found on the internet (just Google "Garbanzo Bean Cake", they're all fairly similar). It makes a dense, moist cake that you would be shocked to find out was made mostly of chickpeas. I've modified the basic recipes I found to include the coffee flavor and switched out canola oil for coconut oil. I also replaced half of the sugar with brown sugar since I like the depth of flavor it gives to baked goods.
