After finding an Amish recipe for oatmeal pie, we had to try it. The oats and sugar in the filling give this pie the flavor and texture of pecan pie, but with no nuts. It's delicious!

Ingredients

Dough for single-crust pie
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
2/3 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking oats
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Vanilla ice cream, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge.
In a large bowl, combine eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup and granulated sugar. Stir in vanilla and salt. Whisk in butter. Stir in oats and flour; pour into crust.
Bake until golden brown, 40-45 minutes. Cover the edge with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent over-browning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. If desired, serve with ice cream.

I adapted an old cookbook's vintage oatmeal pie recipe to make this easy dessert. The oats and sugar in the filling give it the flavor and texture of pecan pie but without nuts! —Nancy Mock, Southbridge, Massachusetts
