Old Fashion Oatmeal Pie

Recipe #11757 | 1¼ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

By: Steven Loeffler
Sep 18, 2001

This great pie recipe goes back over 100 years. The recipe came from my grandmother's grandmother who was living in Charleston, South Carolina during the 1860's. Family history has it, that during the Civil War, since pecans were in short supply in the South, oatmeal was substituted for the traditional pecan pie and the results were astonishing. Now served at every family gathering since that time.

    Great recipe! I made this pie years ago and then lost the recipe. I'm so glad I found it again. Wonderful alternative to pecan pie. Thanks for the recipe!

    Yummy... I made this for my family yesterday. They loved it. When you cut into this pie it's ooey gooey (if that's a word)..lol. So nice and moist with a wonderful texture. Surely this is a 'keeper' in my recipe file. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

    Easy and tastes wonderful. If anyone reading this is from Eastern PA, (Lehigh Valley Area), this tastes like Moravian Coffee Cake, but in a pie form with extra moistness. I will definitely be making this again.
