This soft and gooey chocolate chip cookie pie is sweetened naturally – with no refined sugar required, not even maple syrup!
Happy Birthday!
To celebrate a birthday, one often eats pie.
But what do you eat when the birthday is for the pie, itself?
While it may seem odd to commemorate such an occasion at all, my deep dish cookie pie—which came into existence exactly one year ago—is no ordinary pie.
After all, the recipe was featured on the ABC 5 O’Clock News.
No, I didn’t really celebrate the birthday of a pie.
I’m not totally strange (unlike my dad, who celebrates the birthday of his car…).
But many people have requested a sugar-free version of my deep-dish cookie pie; so finally, a whole year later, I’m posting the new recipe, heavily adapted from the original version—yet just as delicious!
Peace, love, and chocolate chips.

No Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie
Ingredients
- 2 cans white beans or chickpeas, drained and rinsed well
- 1 cup quick oats (or sub almond flour)
- 2 cups pitted dates (300g)
- 1/8 tsp uncut stevia (or sub 1/4 cup sugar)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup applesauce or mashed banana
- 2/3 cup milk of choice
- 3 tbsp oil (or sub 1/4 cup nut butter of choice)
- 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips (or sugar free chocolate chips)
InstructionsÂ
- Preheat oven to 350 F, and grease a 10-in springform pan (or two 8-in round pans). Combine all dry ingredients (except chips) in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine all wet ingredients. Put around 1/3 of the dry and 1/3 of the wet ingredients into a high-powered food processor like a Cuisinart (NOT a blender) and blend until super-smooth (where there are no date pieces to be seen). Scoop out into a bowl, and repeat the process twice more with the rest of the ingredients. (If you have an absolutely giant food processor, you can do it in two batches, as opposed to three.) Stir in the chocolate chips, and pour into the pan or pans. Bake 35-40 minutes (or 30 if you want it really gooey in the middle), then let cool at least 15 minutes before trying to remove it.View Nutrition Facts & Substitutions

perfect! the parents have been on a no sugar kick so this is excellent. x) I made the original cookie pie for my hapless coworkers and they devoured without a clue to what the ingredients were!!
Cool! I already make your chickpea blondies by replacing the sugar with soaked dates and a little applesauce, so I’m glad to see you’re making your healthy desserts even healthier! I’ve had such success with almost all my baking recipes (brownies, breads, cookies, muffins) replacing the sugar with dates–it just makes a softer result and affects bake time. Dates are whole foods and despite being 80% fructose, they actually have health BENEFITS, whereas sugar does not.
I made these for our memorial day picnic last week and my whole family loved them- they don’t like anything healthy and couldn’t even tell it had beans in it. I had chick peas on hand and used them without reading that the recipe called for white beans and it worked just as well. Tasted really good- wasn’t much left for me to bring home and my husband loved it so much he raved about it at work so now they want one!
I love all your recipes- I’ll have a huge list to try!
I haven’t made a recipe with beans yet! My best friend made one of yours a while back and really didn’t like it, so I guess I’ve been hesitant to! Although I have a feeling I’ll be more receptive… haha
I’ve made the cookie pie before and it was fabulous! Black bean brownie recipes drive me to the kitchen, but I have yet to make a reallly good batch ;(
Is that not the gooiest pie you’ve ever seen?! yum!!
Yummmm! I tried using pureed raisins in a similar dessert the other night, and it turned out really well!
Thanks for celebrating the birthday Katie 🙂
Yes, I’ve tried the Deep Dish Cookie Pie, Cinnamon Roll Pie, Brownie Dip (sugar-free), Cookie Dough Dip (sugar-free), & Chocolate Chip Blondies so far! ~ I loved them all!!!!
They are my favorite recipes on your website! (Besides, of course, your Fudge Babies & other raw things)
=)
This is a little embarrasing, but I love bean desserts! For some reason they aways turn out way better than plain flour desserts when I make them.
And people think my family is weird because we’ve named all our cars ;D
It’s my birthday today as well!! I think I shall have to celebrate the two with one of your amazing recipes, although it might have to be that chocolate pumpkin pie!! (honestly the best thing since the invention of sliced bread, pumpkin pie AND chocolate!)
Happy birthday!! 🙂
