Well friends, I must saw if you’re looking for the world’s BEST healthy pie crust recipe you came to the right place today because I have a winner for you. It’s so simple I feel silly sharing it with you.

Since I’ve been testing ALL THE RECIPES for my low calorie cookbook (releasing June 2020), I’ve been playing a lot with oats. Oats are perfect for low calorie eating as they’re naturally low calorie and high fiber which is proven to flush fat. And, you can get them gluten free too!

So… if you’ve been searching for an easy healthy pie shell recipe I’ve got you covered! If not, I print and store this recipe away for a rainy day. 

Low Calorie Pie Crust

Made egg free and dairy free with gluten free oats, this is the BEST healthy pie crust recipe you will ever make! No rolling required or buying another odd flour to clutter up your pantry. Just regular oats blended into flour. 

The best part? It’s only made with 3 ingredients! 

What You Need

• Gluten Free Rolled Oats
• Olive Oil
• Coconut Sugar
• Salt
• Water
• 9-inch pie crust

How to make your oat crust

It’s so easy!

Start by blending the oats in a blender two minutes until a flour forms them stirring the flour, sugar and salt together in a bowl. Next make a well in the bowl, add the olive oil and stir until crumbly. Then add the water until the dough becomes moist.

How to store and cook your healthy pie shell

Store the pie shell in the refrigerator wrapped in plastic wrap or you can press evenly into a pie pan and store it like that until you’re ready to bake it.

You can also bake the homemade pie crust, let it cool to room temperature then store in the refrigerator. I’ve done either method and both work fine. This really is a no fuss crust! 

What to make with easy healthy pie crust

This low calorie pie crust is extremely versatile and so much better than store bought pie crusts! You can use it for baking desserts or savory breakfast. Pies and quiches is what I have in mind for this healthy recipe, but I know many of you will find creative ways to use it!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups Gluten Free Rolled Oats
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil plus more for greasing the pie dish
• 2 teaspoon coconut sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

1. Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by greasing with olive oil.

2. Blend the oats in a blender or food processor 2-3 minutes until it becomes a flour mixture.

3. Transfer blended oats to a mixing bowl and stir with sugar and salt to combine.

4. Make a well in the center of the mixture, add olive oil and stir until crumbly. Add 4 tablespoons of water, one tablespoon at time to the mixture, while stirring until the dough becomes slightly moist and sticky.

5. The batter may still fall apart, but will stick together easily if you pinch it together. If it doesn't, add 1-2 tablespoons of water more.

6. Press the dough into the prepared pie dish. Press it flat and even across the bottom and up the sides.

7. You can either 1) store the unbaked pie shell in the refrigerator in the pan until you're ready to bake a pie or 2) bake it at 375 F for 10 minutes until golden brown. If you bake it ahead of time, you can bake a pie in it after it cools or store the pie crust in the refrigerator up to 10 days until you make a pie.
