Tips:
- Use a food processor or blender to make the oat flour. This will give you a fine, even flour that will help the pie crust come together nicely.
- Don't overwork the dough. Once the ingredients are combined, stir until the dough just comes together. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help the dough hold its shape and prevent it from sticking to the rolling pin.
- Use a sharp knife to trim the edges of the pie crust. This will give you a clean, even edge.
- Bake the pie crust until it is golden brown. This will help the crust set and prevent it from becoming soggy.
- Let the pie crust cool completely before filling it. This will help the crust set and prevent it from shrinking.
Conclusion:
This crunchy nut pie pastry is a delicious and versatile recipe that can be used for a variety of desserts. The crust is made with a combination of oat flour, butter, and sugar, and it is filled with a mixture of nuts, brown sugar, and spices. The crust is baked until it is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. This pie is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
