Oatmeal Pie Crust
Homemade Oatmeal Crust

What you’re basically making is a giant,
rectangular oatmeal cookie, which you’ll
then process with even more butter and
sugar to create a really good, nutty crust.

Ingredients:
2/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon (3 ounces) flour
Scant 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
Scant 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter
1/3 cup (2 1/2 ounces) light brown sugar
3 tablespoons (1 1/4 ounces) sugar
1 egg
Scant 1 cup (3 1/2 ounces) rolled oats

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour,
baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment,
or in a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the butter,
brown sugar and sugar until light and fluffy.
Whisk the egg into the butter mixture until fully incorporated.
Slowly beat in the flour mixture, a little at a time.
Stir in the oats until incorporated.
Spread the mixture onto a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking sheet
and bake until golden brown and set, about 20 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool to the touch on a rack.
