Effortless Preparation: How to Make These Delicious Granola Cookie Wedges

One of the most appealing aspects of this **skinny granola cookie pie** is its straightforward preparation. You don’t need to be a seasoned baker to achieve fantastic results. With just a few simple steps and minimal equipment, you’ll have a warm, fragrant dessert ready in no time. This recipe is perfect for weeknight cravings or when you need a quick, impressive treat for guests.

Let’s talk ingredients for a moment. We use a combination of brown sugar, oil, and a touch of melted butter to create a rich, moist base without relying on excessive amounts of fat. The addition of an egg white helps bind the ingredients while keeping the calorie count down. Vanilla extract enhances the overall sweetness and aroma, while salt and baking soda ensure perfect texture and flavor balance. The star ingredients, of course, are the quick-cooking oats, which give these wedges their signature granola texture, and the delightful semisweet chocolate chips, providing bursts of indulgent flavor. Feel free to add chopped nuts like pecans for an extra layer of crunch and healthy fats.

Here’s a simplified overview of the process, with full details in the recipe card below:

  1. Begin by preheating your oven and preparing your pie pan. This ensures even baking.
  2. In a single mixing bowl, combine the wet and sugary ingredients: brown sugar, oil, melted butter, vanilla, salt, baking soda, and the egg white. Stir them together until everything is beautifully incorporated and smooth. This is the foundation of your cookie pie.
  3. Next, gently add the dry ingredients to your sugar mixture. This includes the all-purpose flour, quick-cooking oats, chopped nuts (if using), and your delicious chocolate chips. Stir just until everything is combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to a tougher cookie texture.
  4. Once your dough is ready, scrape it into a 9-inch pie pan (lightly coated with cooking spray for easy release) and spread it evenly to the edges. A spatula works perfectly for this.
  5. Bake in your preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 13 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. The aroma filling your kitchen will be absolutely divine!
  6. Allow the cookie pie to cool slightly on a wire rack before slicing it into 8 perfect wedges. Now, all that’s left is to savor every single bite of this delightful **healthy cookie pie**!
That’s right! One bowl, straightforward ingredients, and a mere 168 calories per satisfying slice! These **low-calorie granola cookies** are not just easy to make; they’re a smart choice for anyone seeking a **healthy dessert option** that doesn’t compromise on flavor or satisfaction.
