Ingredients

  • 2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas drained

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a high-powered blender. Turn the blender on while simultaneously using the tamper to push down on the ingredients, until it's blended smooth. Give it a taste, and if you'd like it a bit sweeter you can add more maple syrup. If you'd like a thinner texture, add a splash more milk.

  • Serve with strawberries, and apple slices or other fresh fruit, dried fruit, or crackers.

Notes

  • As I mentioned at the beginning this is moderately sweet, not overly sweet. So feel free to tweak the level of sweetness to your preference.
