Look into the spiral.
Swirly, twirly frosting.
You are getting very sleepy hungry…
See? Who says hypnosis doesn’t work?
Birthday Girl
A few weeks ago, my little sister flew in from Boston for Thanksgiving. Her birthday also falls close to the holiday, and therefore we held a special birthday dinner for her at my parents’ house.
My sister is a big fan of the Chocolate Chip White Bean Blondies.
So I was eager to try out my newest idea on her, especially since she isn’t a huge chocoholic. (She doesn’t like bananas either. Sometimes I wonder if we’re really related!)
Deep Dish Cinnamon Roll Pie
One of my Gluten Free Recipes
- 1 cup quick oats
- 2 cans garbanzo or white beans, drained and rinsed (500g after draining)
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 2 and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3 T canola or coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 and 1/2 cups sugar or sucanat (Feel free to use less if you’re used to healthy desserts. Or sub some of the sugar with stevia if desired.)
- 2 T cinnamon
Blend all ingredients very, very well in a food processor. Pour into an oiled pan. (I used a 10-inch springform pan, but you can use a smaller pan if you want a really deep-dish pie.) Cook at 350F for around 35 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before removing from the pan. I haven’t tried subbing the sugar with agave, but I do know that many readers have had successfully used agave in my chocolate-chip cookie pie (a similar recipe). So I *think* it would work here as well.
If desired, frost the pie with Creamy Cinnamon Roll Frosting.

I’ve got the Deep Dish Gooey Cinnamon Roll Pie in the oven. My intention was to have breakfast ready for in the morning, but something tells me it wont last until then 😉
Is the Chocolate-Chip Cookie Pie the same as the Chocolate Chip White Bean Blondies? If not, can you provide a link? Thanks for sharing your talents with us!
Found it 🙂

I made this in a 9 inch pie plate, so I decided to give it a bit more cooking time. That was probably a mistake – I left it in the oven for 39 minutes, and it was a bit hard on the edges when it came out. It still tasted good though, and the inside texture was still pretty soft when warm. I had it with a little bit of vanilla frosting. I absolutely love cinnamon, so I thought this was a great recipe – next time I’ll just be sure to be more careful about baking times.
Hi. I lived in a country where applesauce is not a common ingredient. Is there any substitution that you would recommend? Can I use honey or molasses?
Thanks
You’ll have to experiment to see how it works. Let us know, if you do.

Can I use just all stevia for this ?
This looks amazing! Do you think coconut sugar could be subbed for the regular sugar?!
Delicious! I used egg whites instead of apple sauce and added a bit of fresh ground nutmeg and 1/8 t allspice. I used the full amount of sugar and cinnamon- it is sweet and spicy. Katie, you are amazing! Just add coffee ?
This looks amazing, would love to see the nutrition facts for it! Am I missing them or are they not here?
I think because this post was published in 2011, Katie wasn’t posting nutrition facts yet. All her recipes as of I think 2015 will have nutrition facts!
