Excellent summer snack or dessert!!
For Pie Crust:
• 1 2/3 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup brown sugar

Filling:
• 6 cups of yogurt cheese

For the pie crust first grind up the oats in a blender or spice grinder and make a flour. Then add all the pie crust ingredients into a mixing bowl.
Mix together until you form a ball in your hand and it sticks together.
Now pour the crust mixture into your baking dish.
Press the crust mixture into the baking dish and set aside. At this time preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
We are going to use 6 cups of firm yogurt cheese for this recipe. If you do not know how to make yogurt cheese, please see “How to make Yogurt Cheese” in the “Basic Tutorials” tab.
