Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet. In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar, butter, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract until everything is smooth and well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until just mixed. Then fold in the chocolate chunks, oats, and walnuts until they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and pop it in the fridge for about 15 minutes to chill. When the dough is ready, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and space them about 2 inches apart on your baking sheet. Bake for around 12 minutes, until the edges are nicely browned. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Why you’ll love it
These cookies offer a great balance of rich chocolate and nutty peanut butter flavors. Using chickpea flour and oats adds extra fiber and protein, making them more satisfying. They are a wholesome treat that feels both indulgent and nourishing.
How to serve
Enjoy these cookies warm with a glass of cold milk or your favorite dairy-free alternative. They also pair nicely with a cup of coffee or tea for a cozy afternoon snack. For a fun twist, serve them alongside fresh fruit or a dollop of yogurt.
Storage & leftovers
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
