Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, combine oats, confectioners' sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared pie dish, creating a uniform crust along the bottom and up the sides. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is lightly browned and fragrant, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. (20 minutes)

05

Step

Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before filling. This allows the crust to firm up and prevents a soggy bottom. (30 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of melted butter.
Add a tablespoon of finely chopped nuts (like pecans or walnuts) to the oat mixture for extra crunch.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with aluminum foil during the last few minutes of baking.
This crust pairs exceptionally well with fruit fillings, chocolate pies, and even savory quiches!
