Oat Almond Pie Crust

Ingredients:
oats
nuts, almonds
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
oil, olive, salad or cooking
water, bottled, generic

Directions:
In a blender or food processor, combine the oats and almonds and grind to a coarse powder.
Transfer to a large bowl.
Add the flour and mix well.
Drizzle on the oil and incorporate it with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
Sprinkle in enough of the water (mixing it lightly with a fork) to moisten all the flour and make a dough that you can form into a ball.
Flatten the dough into a circle about 1/2-inch thick On a lightly floured board or a sheet of waxed paper, roll the dough into a thin (about 1/8 inch) circle about 11 inches diameter.
Line a 9-inch pie pan with the dough and trim the edges to leave a 1/2-inch overhang all around.
Use the overhang to form a fluted edge.
Place the crust in the freezer for at least 20 minutes.
Fill the shell and bake it according to the directions of your specific recipe.
*To bake the crust without a filling; Preheat the oven to 425F.
Line the prepared pie crust with aluminum foil and place it on a baking sheet.
Bake for 8 minutes.
Remove it from the oven and discard the foil.
Bake for 7 minutes.
Let the crust cool before filling.
