This recipe tastes just like peanut butter cookie dough, but it’s made with fiber-rich garbanzo beans instead of flour
How do you turn indulgent cookie dough into a healthy and delicious treat? That’s Chef Jeannette’s genius. This recipe makes two scant cups, and each one contains more than 9 grams of fiber. And that’s important, because most people just don’t get enough of this key nutrient in their diets.
The National Cancer Institute recommends at least 25 grams of dietary fiber per day. But the average daily intake in America is a paltry 11 grams. Fiber protects health by slowing the entrance of food into the bloodstream, thus helping prevent blood sugar spikes. And in dozens of epidemiological studies, higher-fiber diets are associated with lower risks of cancer, heart disease, and obesity.
