1 - 15.5 ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed very well
1 ¼ cups pitted dates
¼ tsp. baking soda
⅛ tsp. salt
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
¼ cup peanut butter
2 tbsp. Gluten-free oats
⅓ cup chocolate chips
To serve: gluten-free graham crackers, pretzels or sliced apples
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine chickpeas, dates, baking soda, and enough water to cover the chickpeas by 1 inch. Bring water to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook the mixture for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, strain, and rinse well under cold water.
In a food processor, combine chickpea/date mixture with the salt, vanilla extract, peanut butter, and oats and blend for 2 minutes, or until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips by hand.
Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours to allow the dip to set up before serving. Serve with, gluten-free graham crackers, pretzels or fresh fruit - or just dive in with your spoon!
