Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.
- Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using light brown sugar instead of white sugar. If you prefer a nuttier taste, substitute half of the coconut with chopped pecans or walnuts. Ensure the eggs are well beaten to achieve a smooth consistency. If you want to add more texture, try mixing in some raisins or chocolate chips. This pie can be served warm or chilled, and it pairs beautifully with Grandma'S Apple-Nut Squares.
Serving Suggestions
This pie is delicious on its own but can be enhanced with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Serve it alongside a fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast or pair it with a cup of coffee for a cozy dessert option. It also goes well with a side of Holiday Glazed Yams for a comforting meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover No Crust Oatmeal Pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and warm the pie for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. You can also microwave individual slices for about 30 seconds, but be careful not to overheat, as it may become rubbery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use quick oats instead of 1 Minute oats?
Yes, you can use quick oats as a substitute. However, the texture may be slightly different, as quick oats absorb moisture faster. If you use them, keep an eye on the baking time, as it may vary slightly.
Is it possible to make this pie dairy-free?
Absolutely! You can replace the butter with a dairy-free alternative, such as coconut oil or a plant-based margarine. This will help maintain the texture while making the pie suitable for those avoiding dairy.
Can I add other ingredients to this pie?
Certainly! Feel free to customize the pie by adding ingredients like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruits. Just be mindful of the added moisture and adjust the baking time if necessary to ensure the pie sets properly.
