Vermont Maple Oatmeal Pie

A big thanks goes out to the state of Vermont for this pie! The only word I have to describe it is "Mmmm!"
I made this pie for our Thanksgiving dinner with the family and everyone loved it. In fact, there was one piece left over and my dad asked if I would save it for him so he could have it for breakfast the next morning. My mother-in-law said it was the best pie with a cup of coffee. It's super easy to make and would be great any time of the year.



Recipe:

1 sheet refrigerated pie crust
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup quick-cooking oats
3/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup flaked coconut
vanilla ice cream (optional)


Unroll pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate; ruffle edges.
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt. Stir in the oats, syrups, butter and vanilla; pour into the crust. Sprinkle with coconut.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until set. Cover the edges of the pie crust with foil or a pie shield the last 15 minutes of baking to prevent over browning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with ice cream if desired. Refrigerate any leftovers.



"Mmmmm." Just thinking about it now makes me want to make another one :)
Enjoy and as always,
Happy Baking!
