If you have oatmeal, butter, brown sugar and a can of pie filling, you can whip up a dessert in no time! This was given to me by a woman I worked with many years ago, her name was Barbara. It is quite tasty too. I sometimes add a sprinkle of cinnamon to both the crust mixture and the filling. And if you use gluten free oatmeal, flour and pie filling, you have a good gluten free dessert!
1 cup flour
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
1 can fruit pie filling of your choice (or about 2 cups of homemade pie filling)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the flour, oats, brown sugar and butter until it is well blended. Press 2/3 of the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 inch pie pan. Spoon the pie filling into the crust and then sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture on top. Bake for about 25 minutes or until the crumb topping it well browned and the pie filling it bubbly. Cool before cutting and serving.
