I sauteed apples with cinnamon, nutmeg, butter, sugar and quick oats. I then poured the apples into the crust in a pie shell pan. Baked 1/2 hour and then topped with vanilla ice cream and Redi-Whip. Yummy and fantastic buttery crust!

This is a great recipe. I had been using another recipe that had the same amount of sugar but less flour and less butter. I was looking for another recipe and this is it. I made it yesterday for a dinner party and it went so fast. Everybody was raving about the crust- how perfect and tasty it is. Thanks so much for sharing!!
