Recipe: Amish Oatmeal Pie

Desserts - Pies and Tarts
AMISH OATMEAL PIE

"Oatmeal Pie is a classic dessert amoung the Amish and Mennonites in northern Indiana. It is likened to a budget version of pecan pie, which isn't fair, it is certainly good enough to stand on its own. This version has a rich delicate bottom custard and a top rather like a chewy oatmeal cookie. I like to add a bit of orange to this, but that is not traditional."

1 prebaked (9-inch) pie shell
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup light corn syrup
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp grated orange rind (optional)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup uncooked 1-minute quick oatmeal, uncooked

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Set out the pie shell.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy.

Combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Add to the beaten eggs and blend. Add the corn syrup, melted butter, orange rind, and vanilla and blend again. Mix in the oatmeal, and pour into the baked pie shell.

Bake for 45 minutes. Let cool completely and serve at room temperature.
