Easy Oatmeal Pie Recipe

If you’re a fan of oatmeal cookies, you’ll love the flavor of this homemade oatmeal pie. The filling is embellished with toasted nuts and coconut, along with oatmeal to round-out the flavor profile. You can make the crust from scratch or use a deep dish frozen pie crust to expedite preparation. How to make old fashioned Oatmeal Pie: (Scroll down for full printable recipe).

  • Pie Crust – You can use a refrigerated, frozen or homemade pie crust for this recipe. If using premade crust press prepared pie crust into a 9 inch deep dish pie pan and crimp the edges. If using frozen, no need to thaw.
  • Filling – The filling is super simple to make. To make it, in a medium size bowl, use a whisk to sift together oats, coconut, brown sugar, nuts, flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and allspice.
  • Wet Ingredients – In a separate bowl, whisk together corn syrup, butter, eggs and vanilla. Add the wet to the dry ingredients mixing until fully moistened. Pour filling into crust.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes at 350°F until the center is set when gently shaken.
  • Check it at 30 minutes and cover with foil to prevent over browning of crust.
  • Let the pie cool completely on a cooling rack before cutting and serving with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

How to Make the Best Oatmeal Pie Recipe

  • Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Oatmeal Pie: One 9 inch deep dish pie shell, quick cooking or old fashioned oats, all purpose flour, butter, chopped pecans (or walnuts) dark brown sugar, dark corn syrup, all purpose flour, large eggs, sweetened flaked coconut, vanilla extract, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and whipped cream for serving.
  • Kitchen tools you’ll need: One 9 inch deep dish pie shell, measuring cups and spoons, medium bowl, small bowl and whisk.
  • You can use my homemade flaky pie crust recipe for this pie,  or refrigerated crusts as well as a quality frozen pie crust. Should you choose to use a refrigerated pie crust, I highly recommend using both crusts, rolled together to form one thicker more homemade-like crust. This will hold up to the baking time better.
  • If using a frozen deep dish pie crust, there’s no need to thaw it first. Simply mix up the filling, fill the crust and bake.
  • This recipe uses quick cooking or old fashioned oats, not instant.
  • You can omit the coconut in this recipe with no other adjustments needed.
  • It’s best to allow this pie to cool completely before cutting. If you become impatient, as I have before, just note that some of the liquid from the filling will not be set if you cut the pie while warm. This isn’t the end of the world by any means, but I have found it’s better to cool, then reheat by the piece if you want to serve it warm.
  • You can serve Oatmeal Pie with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
  • This pie can be stored chilled or at room temperature for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

  1. I have been tempted by the Oatmeal Pie, but, try as hard as I can, I cant find the recipe!!! Now that you have me drooling, would you please send me the recipe? Thanks for all the goodies that I have made from your other recipes. Fran

  2. I’ve never heard of oatmeal pie before, but this sounds delicious. I wonder if I can add some chocolate chips?

  3. Hi! This Oatmeal pie looks and sounds amazing. Two things, I have a tree nut allergy and my husband does not like coconut. Would I add more oatmeal instead? I realize the texture will be affected, no way to get around eliminating those two ingredients. Any suggestions? Thanks

    1. Hi Dee, that’s a challenge for sure. In this instance, I think increase the oatmeal to 1 1/2 cups. While the coconut can be omitted, you’re right it will definitely change the texture omitting both of those key ingredients. If you try it, let us know how it goes.

      1. I think I’d try adding a 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips if she can’t do nuts and coconut. With the spices it might taste a little like Mexican hot chocolate!

  4. 4 stars
    This pie has piqued my curiosity. I think I will give it a try. Have you ever put diced apple in it? If so, how was it? Thanks 😊
