Mock Pecan Pie

I know it is difficult to imagine a pecan pie without pecans, right? Well, whether yous stimulate got nut allergies, or yous are similar me as well as abide by it harder as well as harder to pay nearly $10 a pound for pecans, yous mightiness attain this fun, quick as well as slowly recipe a try.

This recipe uses plainly quondam rolled oats instead of pecans. Sounds strange, I know, but the oats soak inwards the butter as well as sugars as well as bake into a golden chocolate-brown as well as crunchy topping that sits on overstep of a traditional soft sugariness filling.  

 As a test, I gave Picky Picky Husband a spell afterward dinner as well as never mentioned the rolled oats. He ate a few bites, declared the pie a "winner" as well as and then said, "I idea yous said yous were out of nuts" (he idea he was eating nuts)!! It actually is tasty.

 3/4 loving cup low-cal corn syrup
3/4 loving cup granulated sugar
3 eggs lightly beaten
1 loving cup rolled oats (quick cooking is OK in a pinch)
1/4 loving cup melted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
9" unbaked pie crust

This takes nearly "three seconds" to mix up; only mix everything inwards a bowl (with a whisk) until smoothen as well as pour into unbaked 9" pie shell.  Bake inwards preheated 350° oven for lx minutes or until knife inserted inwards middle comes out build clean (my electrical oven took fifty minutes).  That's it!! Quick as well as easy.

 The baked "nut" topping is overnice as well as crunchy as well as does non gustation similar oatmeal at all!!  Picky Picky Hubby has told me how much he likes the pie THREE times this even out (that's rare).

ENJOY !!!
