Honey and Oat Granola Pie - A Pillsbury Prize Winner
Here is a gem of a pie. This pie is so simple to make with some very basic ingredients. Although Pillsbury wants you to use your boxed pie crust, I insist you you make the pie crust fresh. One of the best pie crusts I know of is a simple pone you can create in your food processor.

Directions:In a food processor place the cold butter, salt and flour. Pulse slowly until you get a cornmeal like texture. Slowly add in the cold water. The flour will form a ball. Remove from the food processor and place in a plastic bag and flatten. Leave in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. When ready to use, remove the pie dough from the refrigerator and allow to set on the counter for 15 min
