Apple Oatmeal Cream Pies
{Sugar Free, Gluten Free, Egg Free, Dairy Free, Low Fat}
Oatmeal Cookies are a childhood favorite of mine. I love oatmeal cookies and cream together. These Apple Oatmeal Cream Pies are the prefect combination of both flavor and health benefits.
Apples are full of vitamins and minerals. They add a natural sweetness to the cookie as well. Oatmeal is a great food for fiber as well as for your heart. Oats are also good for stabilizing blood sugar because of its magnesium content.
Coconut milk is used for the cream to keep this dairy free. To create the full body of whipped cream, glucomanan is used to stiffen and keep the cream at a semi-solid. I love glucomannan and use it all the time. It is full of fiber and has been used for centuries in Japan. It can help fill you up, so you aren’t tempted to overeat. I buy mine glucomannan on Amazon. I love it as a thickener because, you can use it with cold foods. It doesn’t need to be heated to activate the absorbing properties.
- For the apple oatmeal cookies:
- 3-4 apples cored
- 1 cup of cooked Navy or Great Northern beans
- 1 cup of water
- 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
- 4 Tablespoons of xylitol
- ¼ teaspoon of nunaturals stevia extract (or if another stevia extract powder, you can taste test)
- 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice
- 2 Tablespoon of psyllium husks
- 2 cup of old fashioned oats, raw (use gluten free oats)
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- For the Coconut Cream:
- 1 can of coconut milk chilled overnight in fridge
- 1 tsp of lemon extract
- ⅛ teaspoon of nunaturals stevia extract or you can taste test with xylitol.
- Pinch of salt
- 1¼ tsp of glucomannan
- For the Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Process everything in your food processor, until you have a coarse batter.
- You can process apples, water, and beans first.
- Then add the rest of the ingredients and process again.
- Using a spoon, place cookies on parchment paper on baking sheet.
- Make cookies about 2 tablespoons each.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes.
- For the Coconut Cream:
- Put whisk and mixing bowl in the fridge for a few minutes to cool them as well.
- Pour cooled can of coconut milk in mixer and mix for 3-5 minutes.
- Add the lemon extract, stevia and glucomannan and continue whisking for 3 more minutes.
- Pour into bowl to store in fridge until ready to assemble into oatmeal cream pies. Mixture will continue to thicken in fridge.
- To assemble:
- Take one apple oatmeal cookie and place upside down on plate. Spoon 1 teaspoon of coconut cream on the cookie and top with another cookie.

For Trim Healthy Mamas, this would be an E dessert. Use Low fat coconut milk.

I feel like motherhood was the most amazing thing that ever happened to me… but I had to discover how to not lose myself in the process.
Sound familiar?
I teach busy moms how to make simple healthy swaps that make a huge impact on their health and results.

Thank you so much! Oatmeal cream pies are a childhood favorite of mine.
Me too!
is the oatmeal cookie real soft and moist inside even when it is nice and brown on outside?
It is pretty soft, not a dry cookie at all. Hope that helps!

Thanks! We really loved them. I kept the extra cream in the fridge and enjoyed it on top of my cinnamon oatmeal the next day – Whoa… it’s a keeper.

Hi, these look great! I have never used psyllium husks before…is there a replacement? Or is it in powder form? Thanks!
Hi! Thanks for this! I made the cookies according to the recipe but they’re a little too ‘cakey’; I wondered if I had a tiny bit of fat (maybe 1 tbsp. to the entire cookie recipe) if this would still work for E and make the cookies a teensy bit crispier and more like oatmeal raisin cookies? Especially since I made a cream filling with a little Truwhip, almond milk, vanilla, glucommanan and stevia? I came out to 22 cookies/11 sandwiches? The Truwhip only has 2 grams fat in 2 tbsp. and I used approx. 6 tbsp., the almond milk for about 1/2 cup would only be 1-1.5 tbsp.
I would think as long as you stay within the right amounts, you are fine!
You’re so amazing.I admire you.☺
Thank you so much! I’m sorry this comment got a little lost in the shuffle. I love what I get to do so much, it’s a huge blessing! 🙂
Do you have to peel the apples first?
I just cored them and left the peel on, I chopped them very fine in the food processor and it came out great! I think either way would work great, hope you enjoy them!!
