Oh yes, Nutella blondies…
People are often surprised when they find out what type of music I like.
Perhaps this is due to my innocent demeanor or the fact that I am always wearing pink.
Or that I have the stereotypically “girly” job of baking for a living.
But the truth is you’d be much more likely to find me listening to hard rock or metal than Katy Perry or Beyoncé as I measure ingredients, stir batters, clean dishes, and pull batches of homemade chocolate chip blondies from the oven.
While wearing pink.

Nutella Chocolate Chip Blondies
Adapted from: Chocolate Chip Chickpea Blondies
- 1 1/2 cups chickpeas or white beans (1 can, drained and rinsed very well) (250g after draining)
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar of choice or xylitol
- pinch uncut stevia OR 2 additional tbsp sugar of choice
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/3 cup choc-hazelnut spread or Homemade Healthy Nutella
- 1/4 cup milk of choice
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips, plus extra for the top if desired
Grease an 8-in square baking pan, and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a high-quality food processor (taste and texture will be much better if a blender is not used), process all ingredients but the chips until smooth. Stir in the chips, then smooth into the baking pan, being sure to scoop out every last bit of the batter. Sprinkle some extra chips on the top if desired for presentation. Bake 30 minutes, then remove from the oven to cool. The Nutella blondies will look underdone at first, but this is okay. Once completely cool, cover the pan and refrigerate overnight. The texture will be much firmer the next day.

What do chickpeas taste like? lol I’m new to the whole watching my calories so I’m wondering how it will taste with them
Hi- how many calories in these per serving without the nutella or chocolate chips?? Craving something sweet without chocolate!
Hi there! How many servings does this recipe make to make them 60 calories each?
This may be a dumb question but how many pieces do you cut the pan into when you’re finished? Just trying to figure out how many servings this makes/how much one serving is to coordinate with your nutritional information. Can’t wait to try this!
I just tried this recipe and it did not turn out…AT ALL! The batter looked like chocolate cake batter. I thought that maybe I missed something, but double checked all of the ingredients and everything was there. I went ahead and baked it, hoping for the best, but it did not turn out. It is a runny mess. Maybe I’ll use it for chocolate topping over ice cream. Not sure what went wrong. The pictures look so delicious. I read through previous comments to see if anyone else had problems, but it seems like people just commented without making them. The only thing I can think of is that I didn’t measure the chickpeas. I just used one can. Are there different sized cans? Any other thoughts?
Yes definitely there are different sized cans of beans, but I think maybe it would make more sense that an ingredient was mismeasured or left out? I’ve done that many times before! For actual reviews of recipes, just be sure to look at the newer comment pages (there are usually multiple pages of comments, and the first page will just be people saying how good it looks).

I just made these and they’ve gone down a treat with my very anti-healthy boyfriend! He couldn’t believe chickpeas were in them, and I didn’t feel bad for scoffing 3! I didn’t include the oats (I don’t like oats and chocolate together, dunno why) and I suppose the brownies were naturally a bit thinner than Katie’s picture, so next time I might try and sub in something else to bulk them out a bit (possibly a smidge of whole wheat flour, like 1/8 cup). I also used Silver Spoon 1/3 stevia/sugar blend as well for those in the UK looking for a healthier sugar alternative. Overall, love these and can’t wait to try them again!!
Amazing! Mine came out darker I used regular Nutella and Lily’s mini chips and they taste like a rich brownie so delicious
So you have to buy your book to get nutritional info?! Blackmail anyone?!!
Hi Betty, we are honestly not sure what you mean. The nutrition facts link is under the recipe in the post.
