Though they’re often found in savory Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes, their nutty flavor and firm texture actually make them ideal for desserts.

And let’s not forget the health benefits! Chickpeas are a fantastic source of fiber, protein, vitamins, and more. 

You can use chickpeas in many sweet recipes, from brownies to ice cream.

So, let’s kick things off with these 17 easy chickpea desserts to get you started! 

15 Chickpea Dessert Recipes That Don’t Taste Healthy

1. Chocolate Chickpea Brownies

These chickpea brownies have everything you love about traditional brownies. They’re fudgy, ooey-gooey, and loaded with chocolate. 

They also just so happen to be protein-packed, gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free!

Oh, and they’re vegan too! Talk about a win-win-win-win-win!

2. Flourless Chocolate Chip Chickpea Blondies

In a world full of sinful brownie recipes, I still can’t get enough of blondies.

Blondies are delicious, plain, and simple. And these healthy chickpea blondies are insanely yummy!  

This recipe creates tantalizingly nutty blondies, with bits of chocolate in every bite. They’re super chewy and vegan.

Of course, you can use dairy products if you prefer.

3. Cinnamon Apple Chickpea Cake

Apples and cinnamon go together like peanut butter and jelly, and they’re an iconic flavor combination.

Plus, apple cinnamon desserts are always fabulous.

This vegan apple cinnamon chickpea cake might just become your next fall favorite.

It’s dense, moist, and loaded with apple cinnamon goodness. 

I think this cake would actually make a fantastic breakfast! It’s filled with protein and whole ingredients, so you’ll stay full until lunch. 

4. Flourless Chickpea Peanut Butter Cookies 

Peanut butter cookies are delicious, but they can be a touch dry with the wrong recipe.

Luckily, that’s not the case with these chickpea peanut butter cookies. 

These babies are super soft, a little gooey, and brimming with chocolate chips. What more could you want?

5. Chickpea Cookie Dough

Some people say you’re not supposed to eat raw cookie dough. I suppose I understand the reasoning behind it.

Raw eggs and everything.

Well, with this cookie dough, you don’t have to worry! It’s egg-free, gluten-free, and completely edible!

It’s kind of like a chocolate chip dessert hummus, and it’s completely scrumptious! 

6. Chickpea Strawberry Cake

I think fruity cakes are often overlooked in favor of rich chocolate or something with lots of buttercream.

But this healthy strawberry cake is definitely one to try! 

It’s loaded with strawberry and coconut flavors, making it dense and moist with a pleasant, almost creamy texture – kind of like banana bread! 

Frost it with a delicious and silky coconut-cashew frosting and fresh fruit. Yum! 

7. Chickpea Chocolate Cake

When you’re following a special diet, it can feel like you’re missing out, and that’s especially true of desserts.

Enter this chickpea chocolate cake. 

It’s vegan, paleo, gluten-free, and nut-free. Did I mention that it’s seriously delicious?

This cake is fudgy, chocolatey, and wonderfully sweet. 

8. Vanilla Layer Cake

This is the perfect vanilla cake. It also happens to be vegan and grain-free – not that you’d notice!

It’s sweet, decadent, and tastes like an ordinary vanilla cake, with notes of nuttiness. It’s frosted with delicious vegan vanilla buttercream to boot. 

It might seem like a cake this magical would be difficult to make, but it’s no more involved than making a sponge cake from scratch. 

You could quickly turn this into a funfetti cake, too, by adding sprinkles to the batter. 

9. Chickpea Chocolate Chip Cookies 

I don’t think I know a single person that doesn’t like chocolate chip cookies.

They’re sweet, chewy, and mouthwatering. Plus, they make your home smell amazing. 

These vegan chocolate chip cookies are just as good, naturally sweetened, very chocolatey, and super soft.

I think you’ll love them so much; you might make these from now on!

10. Persian Chickpea Cookies 

These delicious Persian cookies are full of delicate Middle Eastern flavors like pistachio, cardamom, and rosewater

They’re ideal if you enjoy a sandy, crumbly cookie because they’ll fall apart in your mouth and melt on your tongue. Delish! 

11. Chocolate Chickpea Muffins

Make sure your day gets off to a sweet start with these chocolate chickpea muffins.

Moist, delicious, and seriously chocolatey, these sweet treats are healthy, too!

They’re packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats, meaning you’ll stay full, clear-headed, and steady all morning. 

Your whole family will love them, so you should probably make extra.

12. Chocolate Chickpea Cupcakes

These cupcakes may not be healthy, but they are low-carb and gluten-free.

Plus, they’re dark and decadent with a rich and silky smooth chocolate cream frosting on top. 

They’re irresistible and insanely indulgent.

13. Chickpea Banana Muffins

Start your day off right with these chickpea banana muffins. They’re healthy, chocolatey, and absolutely delicious. 

They’ll give you steady energy all morning because they’re sweetened naturally. Of course, the kick of protein doesn’t hurt, either.

They pair perfectly with your morning coffee, a sweet smoothie, or robust protein shake.

They’re super kid-friendly, too! 

14. Chocolate Chip Chickpea Muffins

Skip the donut and grab one of these chickpea muffins instead! They’re just as tasty but have half the calories (at least).

These delicious chocolate chip muffins are jam-packed with fiber, protein, and good fats.

They’re also refined sugar-free, so you won’t have an energy crash during your workday. 

They’re chocolatey, soft, and nutty. I can’t get enough of them!

15. Vegan Chocolate Chickpea Ice Cream

I love chocolate ice cream, but I’m always skeptical when I see vegan recipes.

Luckily, this recipe is seriously good!

It’s incredibly silky, with an explosion of chocolatey goodness in every spoonful. 

The combo of chickpeas, sun butter, dairy-free milk, and cornstarch make this so velvety.

Meanwhile, the melted chocolate and cocoa powder create a double dosage of chocolatey goodness.

You would never know it’s allergy-friendly because it tastes and feels just like ice cream.
