Raspberry Oatmeal Crumb Pie

We were heading over to a friend's house for dinner and I was asked to bring a dessert. My daughter really wanted to use the raspberry pie filling that we had in our baking cupboard so I went in search of a recipe. I found a nice oatmeal crumb bar recipe in my Good Housekeeping cookbook that would work well with the pie filling. My daughter didn't want to make bars, instead she wanted to make it into a pie so that is what we did. She did every step of this recipe and we were both quite proud. It turned out really easy to make (a very kid friendly recipe) and it tasted fantastic.

Original recipe by Good Housekeeping
  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 cup of quick cook oats
  • 2/3 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup of butter, diced
  • 21 oz can of raspberry pie filling
  • Whipped cream (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a pie dish with cooking spray.

Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and baking soda together in a bowl. Use a pastry cutter to cut in the butter until it resembles a course crumbly mixture. Measure 1 cup and set aside. Add the remaining mixture to the pie pan and press firmly to the bottom and sides. Add the raspberry pie filling and smooth out evenly.

Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture on top of the raspberry pie filling then spread evenly.

Place into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crumb topping is golden brown. Let the pie cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy.
