Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups Gluten Free Honey Nut Cheerios™ cereal
  • 3 tablespoons sugar or firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Using food processor, finely crush cereal.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix crushed cereal and sugar with fork. Stir in melted butter until well mixed. Press in bottom and up side of ungreased 9-inch pie plate.

    Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. This crust performs best with a creamy no-bake type filling.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cooking Gluten Free? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
  • tip 2
    No food processor? Place cereal in food storage plastic bag; crush finely with rolling pin or meat mallet. Use 2 1/2 cups cereal to make 1 cup of crumbs. Be sure the crumbs are finely crushed; large particles make it difficult to press mixture into pie plate.
  • tip 3
    The butter can be replaced with 1/4 cup vegan vegetable oil spread stick, melted.
