Rule Breaker is now introducing a better-for-you alternative to the classic chocolate chip blondie with its P’Nutter Chocolate Chip Blondie, which features garbanzo beans as the first ingredient. As well as being entirely plant-based, the blondie bar is free from gluten and nuts, making it an ideal school snack for kids. The new bean-based snack offers the classic flavors of chocolate and peanut butter in a new format that also does away with GMO ingredients, artificial flavoring and the top eight allergens.
In all, Rule Breaker sets itself apart by making a variety of bean-based sweet snacks that are high in protein and fiber, as well as low in sugar.
Chickpeas are now serving as the base for everything from ready-to-eat cookie dough to sweet snack spreads, helping to reinvent a variety of favorite foods in better-for-you formats.
