Old Fashioned Oatmeal Pie
Summer time means old fashioned food. Cookouts with hamburgers, hot dogs and steaks on the grill. Baked beans and pasta salad beside the lemonade and iced tea. Dessert calls for foods that fill you up and taste great with ice cream on top. This old fashioned oatmeal pie is exactly what we need.
How do you finish off that kind of a meal? With PIE, of course! (and ice cream!!)
My mom makes a killer apple pie. I have a sister who comes in a close second place behind mom’s apple pies. I don’t even attempt to compete.
Mom’s Perfect Pie Crust recipe can be found here.
Another sister of mine has mastered Grandma Troxel’s Strawberry Pie. Again, I eat my share but I don’t try to compete.

Pumpkin pies are Thanksgiving dinner requirements. Pecan pie accompanies Christmas dinner. As you can see, my family has a tradition of pie.
And ice cream. No pie is complete without an ala mode scoop of (preferably vanilla) ice cream.
I ran across this recipe for oatmeal pie last week. I thought it sounded pretty darn good. Plus, I had all the ingredients on hand. Yes, I have molasses in the cupboard. Because when you make Aunt Dottie’s New England Baked Beans and Boston Brown Bread, you use molasses!Â
