Description

Indulge in a rich and creamy Crack Pie with a delicious oat cookie crust that brings everyone together.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 recipe Oat Cookie
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 3 tbsp white sugar (granulated)
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/8 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar (granulated)
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup corn powder
  • 1/4 cup milk powder
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 large egg yolks

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Whisk together melted butter, light brown sugar, and kosher salt until smooth.
  3. Stir in your homemade oat cookie mixture. The dough should come together into a thick paste.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish, creating a nice, even layer.
  5. Bake the crust for about 10-12 minutes or until it’s lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.
  6. Cream together softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy.
  7. Add the large egg yolk, beating until fully incorporated.
  8. Mix the all-purpose flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt together. Slowly incorporate these dry ingredients into the butter mixture.
  9. Gradually add in melted butter while mixing, followed by heavy cream, vanilla extract, and corn and milk powders. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  10. Pour the filling into the cooled oat cookie crust, and smooth the top with a spatula.
  11. Bake the assembled pie in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until the filling sets with a slight jiggle in the center.
  12. Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature before chilling in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  13. Dust the top with confectioners’ sugar just before serving.

Notes

Make-ahead tips: The oat cookie crust can be prepared a day in advance. Try making individual servings in small ramekins for quicker baking.
