Oat Pie Crust...


This is a unique pie crust with a very unique texture.

It's easy to make and the dough is very easy to 'get along with'.

1 cup unbleached flour
1/3 cup quick oats
salt
1/4 cup butter, sliced
Mix flour, oats, and salt. Cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles cornmeal.
Add 4 1/2 T cold water and toss with a fork. Knead up 3 or 4 times with hands.
Roll out onto lightly floured surface into approx. 12 inch circle. Place in pie dish,
trim and crimp crust.

Fill and bake!
