Description
A rich, gooey deep-dish cookie pie made with wholesome ingredients like chickpeas and oats. It’s secretly healthy, vegan, and tastes just like a traditional chocolate chip cookie.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chickpeas (1 can, drained and rinsed)
- 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup ground oats
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tbsp oil (or additional applesauce)
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas very well.
- Blend all ingredients except chocolate chips until completely smooth.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into a greased or parchment-lined 8-inch round or square baking dish.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden and firm.
- Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow it to firm up.
Notes
- You can substitute the oil with more applesauce for an oil-free version.
- The pie will continue to firm as it cools, so don’t overbake.
- Use certified gluten-free oats if needed.
