Oreo Pie Crust Recipe
This recipe is so simple that it can barely be considered a recipe. Honestly, the hardest part is deciding what to fill it with and which kind of Oreos to use. Make this once and youโll see that there is absolutely no need to buy the premade Oreo crusts from the store when it takes all of 10 minutes to throw one together at home.
Since it can be baked or made as a no-bake crust, you have all sorts of different fillings to choose from. Try it with fruit pies, like Banana Cream Pie, creamy pies, like this Chocolate Cream Pie, and no-bake cheesecakes, like our Cookie Butter No Bake Cheesecake.
The Two Ingredients You Will Need
- Oreo Cookies: for a traditional crust, use plain Oreos. Or, trying different flavor combinations by using any one of the many flavors of Oreo Cookies out there. Mint, peanut butter or Funfetti would all make excellent pie crusts.
- Salted Butter: melt your butter in the microwave or in a small saucepan over the stovetop. You want it melted but not too hot.
How to Make an Oreo Pie Crust
- Make the Oreo crumbs. Using a food processor, pulse the Oreo Cookies until they form fine crumbs.
- Add the melted butter. Add the melted butter and pulse again to combine, using a spatula to scrape down the sides and mix as needed.
- Press into a pie plate. Scoop the mixture into a 9" pie plate, then use the flat bottom of a measuring cup to press it in evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
- Bake (unless you are making a no-bake dessert). Bake the crust in a preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Cool and fill. Remove from the oven and cool completely before using. For best results, let the pie plate cool to room temperature and then place in the freezer for 30 minutes before adding the filling. Enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! If you want to make the crust ahead of time, you can freeze it for up to 3 months. You can also make this a few days in advance and cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and store at room temperature.
How do you grind up Oreos if you donโt have a food processor?
You can place the Oreos into a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin, bottle or any other heavy item.
Do I need to remove the Oreo cream filling?
Nope - just crush and use the entire thing. The Oreo filling adds a little creaminess that helps hold the crust together and gives it a little extra sweetness.
What other pans can I use?
Besides a 9-inch pie plate, you can bake the crust (or no-bake it) in 9โ springform pans, or even a 9โx9โ square dish.
Can I make this vegan?
Since Oreos are technically vegan, you could replace the butter with a vegan butter substitute for a quick and easy vegan pie crust.
Is this crust better baked or frozen?
If you are going to bake the filling anyways, there is no need to pre-bake this Oreo Crust. For no-bake fillings, if you want a slightly crispier crust than you can bake it and cool it prior to filling. Otherwise, you can chill the crust in the fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes prior to adding your no-bake filling for a completely no-bake dessert.
Storing and Freezing Instructions
- Room Temperature: cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Freezer: wrap well with plastic wrap, then aluminum foil and store frozen for up to 3 months.
