Oat Nut Pie Crust Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F
• Spray sides and bottom of 9-inch pie pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, combine all ingredients; mix well.
• Press into prepared pie pan.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
• Cool; chill or freeze as filling requires.
• Fill with packaged pie filling mixtures, chilled cheesecake fillings, frozen yogurt or ice cream, as desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F.
• Toast oatmeal in a shallow pan for 10 minutes to brown, watch carefully.
• Remove from oven and in small mixing bowl combine oatmeal with remaining ingredients.
• Press into 9-inch pie plate.
• Fill with desired filling and bake or bake crust empty for later use.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• 2. Bake the almonds and walnuts or pecans on separate baking sheets until they are fragrant and toasted: about 8 minutes for pecans or walnuts, 10 minutes for almonds. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Raise the oven temperature to 375°F.
• 3. Grind the oats in a blender or food processor until they become a coarse meal. Empty into a large mixing bowl.
• 4. Grind the almonds and walnuts or pecans into a coarse meal and add to the oats, along with the flour and salt.
• 5. In a small bowl, whip together the oil or butter, maple syrup, vanilla and water. Add to the oat-nut mixture and mix well. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
• 6. With cold, wet hands, press the crust mixture into a well- oiled tart or pie pan. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until barely golden brown.
• 7. Set aside to cool. Then add pie filling and bake for additional 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
• Combine oats, confectioners' sugar, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl; press into the prepared pie dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Combine flour, rolled oats and salt in mixing bowl.
• Slowly drizzle in oil, mixing with a fork until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
• Add ice water slowly until mixture begins to form a ball.
• Pat into 9 inch pie plate. Bake according to filling recipe.
• For baked pastry shell: Prick pastry with fork in several places. Bake at 400F 10 min until light golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spread oats in a large shallow pan and bake for 10 minutes to toast.
• Toss with sugar, nuts and melted butter.
• Press over bottom and up sides of 9-inch pie pan. Refrigerate while preparing your filling. Bake like any pie with a "regular" crust would require.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, and line with parchment paper so that there is a 2-inch overhang on the two long sides.
• In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar and salt. Add butter and pulse to fine crumbs. Pulse a few more times until some of the crumbs start to come together, but don't overprocess; the dough should be somewhat crumbly. (You can also mix the dough in a bowl using two knives or a pastry cutter.)
• Press dough into an even layer in the prepared pan. Prick dough all over with a fork. Bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack. You can bake the crust up to 6 hours ahead, or use it while it's still hot.
• To prepare the filling, in a mixing bowl, gently toss together raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice and zest, and salt.
• While the crust is baking, make the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans, nutmeg and salt. Stir in melted butter, pinching the mixture with your fingers, to make 1/2-inch crumbs.
• Using the back of a spoon, an offset spatula or a pastry brush, spread jam in an even layer on top of the crust, going all the way to the edges. Evenly spread raspberry mixture on top of jam. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the raspberry layer, keeping some larger clumps.
• Bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is slightly bubbling along the sides, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• To serve, use a sharp knife to release edges. Using parchment overhang, lift and transfer to a cutting board and cut into 24 squares.
