Directions
Graham Cracker-Oatmeal Crust,Oats stirred into graham cracker crumbs make this crust extra chewy… goes very well with most any fruit pie! from Icebox Pies cookbook,This is a good crust as it doesn’t get soggy, but the oatmeal doesn’t cook quite enough to blend in well, taste-wise, with the cookie crumbs. Will use again, though, as it holds up well and is easy to make. Thanks for sharing! Update: made this again for a strawberry pie and this time coarsely ground the oatmeal in a mini-food processor before adding to the crumbs. Used white sugar, as had no brown. Also, it only took 10 whole graham crackers for me to make 1 1/3 cups. These changes made the taste perfect and have changed the rating from 4 to 5. Thanks again for a crust that can truly stand up to a juicy filling.,Really appreciated this recipe! Hubby wanted a low fat pudding pie for Christmas dessert, but I really don’t like the store bought graham cracker crusts! They break so easily b/f I can even use it! This recipe was a life-saver. used low fat cinnamon crackers & pressed the crust up the sides as well as on the bottom of the pie plate. I needed to bake it for 10 min, not 7 to get it crispy enough. I DID have a little problem w/ it being a tad crumbly, but no complaints. used the “rolling pin” method to crush the graham crackers (worked great) & I think I needed to get the crumbs a bit more fine. Thanks AGAIN!
