Tip:
- Substitute the peanut butter for seed butter if there is a nut-allergy
- If the peanut butter is too thick, briefly heat it with the maple syrup in the microwave or on the stove-top to make it easier to stir into the chickpea-Envirokidz mixture
- Substitute the maple syrup for honey/vegan honey

- In a food processor, add the chickpea and pulse a few times until broken down
- Add 1 Tbsp each of Envirokidz Choco Chimp and Envirokidz Koala Crisp. Pulse 3 times
