Lowfat pie crust




1 1/3 c. flour            
1/2 tsp. salt           
1/3 c. oil (Puritan, Canola, etc.)             
3 tbsp. skim milk

Combine flour and salt in bowl. Blend oil and milk in bowl. Add to flour mixture. Stir with fork until forms large clumps. Press into ball. Flatten to form 5-6 inch "pancake". Roll between sheets of wax paper. Peel off top sheet. Flip into 9 inch pie pan. Remove other sheet. Press dough into pie plate. Trim and flute.
This recipe really is "easy as pie."  My 11-year-old makes this by himself because he loves apple pie all year long, and I usually only make pies at Thanksgiving (and we eat enough for the whole year that week).



Another crust:  Oat crust

1 1/3 C oats
1/3 C brown sugar
1 t cinnamon
5 T melted butter
