How to Make Oatmeal Nut Pie Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a shallow pan, toast 1 ½ cups rolled oats for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  3. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the toasted oats with ½ cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or your favorite), ¼ cup packed light brown sugar, ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until well combined.
  4. Press the oat mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie plate, ensuring an even layer. Create a slightly raised edge.
  5. For a pre-baked crust: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely before filling. Alternatively, fill with your desired pie filling and bake according to your filling's recipe instructions.
