How to Make Cookie Nut Crust
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon of baking soda.
- Add the ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 cup chopped walnuts, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the bowl.
- Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the mixture, a small amount at a time, into a 9-inch pie plate, building up the sides and fluting the edge. Make sure the crust is evenly distributed.
- Cover the fluting with a strip of aluminum foil to prevent over-browning.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
- Let the crust cool completely in the pie plate before adding your pie filling.
