els alchemy in this video we are going to prepare a gluten-free cake made of chickpeas or garbanzo

started with this flourless chocolate cake I have taken 100 grams of dates
whose seeds have been removed I know what you're thinking it does sound odd
that chickpeas can be used in this recipe but it really does work butter the cake pan so that
the parchment paper can stick to it here's a tip please rinse your chickpeas at least twice
or thrice to remove the smell of the chickpeas one teaspoon baking powder then add
in half a teaspoon of vanilla extract one and a half tablespoon of instant coffee liquid which is basically your instant
coffee powder dissolved in water we then add in 2 eggs initially we will
blend everything except the chocolate the chocolate can be melted using double boiler
method or microwave now if you're using microwave ensure to do it with 30 second breaks as
cooking it longer can burn your chocolate also try to pick the 60 to 70
cocoa content dark chocolate brand blend it until the chocolate has combined
with the chickpeas dates and the egg another tip is for vegan options you
can replace the egg with flaxseed gel preheat the oven to 360 Fahrenheit or 180
centigrade and then bake this cake for about 30 minutes or until your toothpick or your knife
