Coco Gram Marbles

Who doesn't love chickpeas? These tiny protein-rich balls are perfect for every dish and every individual. Blend them into gram flour and incorporate them into any recipe you desire. Chickpeas are versatile legumes with a mild, nutty flavor. The flour obtained by grinding dried chickpeas serves as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour, which you can easily prepare at home and has recently gained worldwide appeal. Coco Gram Marbles help keep the added grams to a minimum.

When we made them during an Ayurvedic massage course at our Yoga center in Sintra, Portugal, the desserts were quickly devoured during break time. They are prepared with coconut flakes and gram flour.

You might have heard of polyphenols—antioxidants present in considerable amounts in coco gram flour. These compounds combat free radicals, especially those generated from fast foods, thereby improving overall health and performance. Moreover, wheat flour typically has more calories than gram flour, making gram flour a preferable choice for a nutrient-dense, lower-calorie option.

Another unique benefit of chickpea flour is its ability to help control hunger by moderating ghrelin, the hunger hormone. Lower ghrelin levels promote a feeling of fullness, which in turn can help manage body weight.
