Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup uncooked brown rice
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup garbanzo bean flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup dried currants
  • ¼ cup sweetened flaked coconut, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat an 8-inch pie pan with cooking spray.

Step 2
Bring water and brown rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.

Step 3
Stir peanut butter, applesauce, honey, and egg together in a bowl; add rice, garbanzo bean flour, oats, currants, coconut, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, baking powder, and ground cinnamon and stir until combined. Spread dough evenly in prepared pie pan.

Step 4
Bake in preheated oven until edges are golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Cook’s Note:

Make sure all the water is absorbed into rice, possibly adding an additional 1 or 2 tablespoons water if it seems too dry.
