Healthy Treats | Cheers to Sunday Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie!
Its Sunday my friends and I just had to do it!
I’ve wanted Chocolate Chip cookies for some time but haven’t made them. When the girls were young they would often convince me to make Chocolate Chip Cookies on Sunday evenings. They always said it helped comfort them knowing they would have school the next day! lol Today was one of those days where I just had to give in. Mr. Bird and I walked our 3 miles and rode bikes so we felt a bit of cookie-licious-ness was okay, lol
But don’t worry, this is a healthy Chocolate Cookie Pie!
Oh and this treat is dairy and gluten free with no processed sugars!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
All you need!
- Chick Peas (1 ½ cup)
- Gluten Free Oats (1/2 cup)
- Coconut Oil (3 tbsp.)
- Vanilla (1 ½ tsp)
- Baking Soda (1/2 tsp)
- Baking Powder (1 tsp)
- Grated Fresh Apple (2 tbsp.)
- Organic Maple Syrup (1/2 cup)
- Pecans (1/4 cup chopped)
- Dairy Free Dark Chocolate Chips (1/2 cup)
Don’t buy…
Apple sauce, I just grate a fresh apple when I need it! Fresher and no added sugars!
Rinse it…
If you’re using canned Chick Peas. Save the juice which is called Aquafaba. Aquafaba is a wonderful egg substitute! Yes, we're really using Chick Peas! It really works!
Everything goes…
into old Walter, my trusty food processor. (Hold onto the Chocolate chips and Pecans!) Process this until everything smooth. Now stir in the chocolate and pecans.
Grab the Spring form…
pan and pour this tasty dough into the pan. Feel free to taste it; you’ll love this cookie dough! Into the oven we go, bake at 350 for 40 minutes.
It smells…
Heavenly….but you can’t eat it yet! Wait 30 minutes! I had to cover it with a cloth to keep it out of Mr. Bird's quick beak!
A healthy take on a family favorite!
Grab a glass of Almond Milk and Enjoy!
I hope you all have a great week! Thanks for stopping in!
And as always, blessings to you all

Absolutely delicious Mrs Bird, I'd love to make this, you made me chuckle with:
Lucky Mr Bird!
Mr birds quick beak indeed! We had to hide cookies from him on those Sunday evenings lest he steal all of our cookies because he’s a Cookie Monster! 😂 these looks delicious and you definitely, without a doubt, are deserving of such rich healthy chocolatey goodness!! Xoxox
lol, you're really bringing back fond memories. Your sister and I were just talking about this today! Poor Cookie Monster Bird...neglected we all know. I think I could send this little goodie to the homestead ;) oxoxox love you!
Hey @birdsinparadise,
I would like to invite you to @APPICS as one of the first APPICS app testers!
APPICS is a new blockchain based social media application launching in Q2 this year. Similar to Steemit, users can earn cryptocurrency tokens for posting creative content, but different to Steemit, APPICS will be focusing on photos or videos instead of blogposts. With the APPICS app we give users the power to monetize time and creativity they spend on social media.
The app is currently in beta mode, running on the STEEM blockchain, so you can easily log in with your username and your private posting key as your password.
If you´re interested in joining APPICS, please send us an email at [email protected]
Feel free to visit our website Appics.com for further information.
I‘m looking forward to hear from you!

I SHOULD Definitely try this out! I might change maple syrup into brown sugar that I have. Should be OK?
