This pie crust is great for baked meat pies, Mexican empanadas and pretty much any dessert pie. It is somewhere between a “short” crust” and a “flaky” crust. There is absolutely no “Carbquick taste” in this crust, either, thanks to the oat fiber. This recipe is not suitable until the grains rung of [...]

Peggy’s “Nutty” Pie Crust

Click pic to enlarge I’m really liking what oat fiber does for baked goods. So far, everything I’ve put it it has been FANTASTIC! Gives things a real flour taste! And this stuff is pure fiber! A serving size is 28g.. I weighed that amount out and poured into a measuring cup and it’s just [...]

Click pic to enlarge I recently discovered oat fiber which I’m just beginning to explore. This morning’s experiment is VERY encouraging.

Doesn’t look like a traditional tart crust, but sure tastes like a flour crust to me. Recipe makes enough dough for one 10″ tart. BTW this crust is [...]

Peggy’s Pecan Crust

This is my all-time favorite pie crust for unbaked cheesecakes and cream pies that don’t require further baking. I merely substituted Splenda for sugar and flax for flour in the original recipe, which also adds a little extra fiber, as well as flavor. Would be great filled with Linda’s site recipe for Jello Fluff [...]
