It is perfect for their tiny hands, but also, it helps us avoid wasting food. They can always have seconds (and thirds) whereas with a big one if they don&rsquo;t finish it, it will end up in the compost. The recipe below is going to be for about 12 regular muffins, not tiny ones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&rsquo;s awesome about this recipe is that apart from the chickpeas, which are pureed and added to the batter, the ingredients also include fiber- and protein- packed hemp hearts and ground flaxseed, in place of the nuts found in the original recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to try and make an egg-free batch next. If you are reading this and happen to have any ideas &#8211; let me know what you think would be the best egg replacement to use here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without further ado, here is the recipe, adapted from <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pulses.org\/nap\/recipe\/apple-cake-chickpea-puree\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pulses.org<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apple chickpea muffins<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apple Mixture:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>5 cups shredded apples.
