Oatmeal, mango and cheese pie

The crust is made with flavored oatmeal, flour and sugar; the filling is cream cheese and sugar with a layer of sliced fresh mangoes on top; the crumbly topping is the same mixture as the crust. I baked this wonderfully sinful dessert pie around midnight last night (I just needed some alone time) and it is based on a recipe called apple streusel cheesecake bars, second prize winner in the Mix It Up With Betty cookie recipe contest. I did not use a Betty Crocker cookie mix, however. I used the oatmeal cookie recipe that I got from my sister-in-law more than a decade ago. I did not use canned pie filling either but slices of luscious fresh mangoes which really gave the pie a very Filipino touch.
Like I’ve mentioned before, I’m not really an oatmeal porridge kind of girl. So I try find more exciting ways of using the boxes of oatmeal we keep a steady supply of. First there were the blueberry oatmeal pancakes for breakfast. Now, I have this gorgeous dessert that, surprisingly, was really so simple to make. And I hope to add more to my flavored oatmeal recipes. It’s such a wonderful feeling to be able to transform something I find boring into something that really, really tickles my taste buds.

Stay updated!
That looks really yummy! i love that you used a cookie recipe that you have used for years as the crust and topping!
Hi Tai-tai, I figured an oatmeal cookie mix is an oatmeal cookie mix. Besides, I was drooling over the pics and Betty Crocker or no Betty Crocker, I just had to do it!
Hi Connie,
Do you think plain oatmeal wil do? can’t find any flavoured oatmeal here. Am dying to try making this for a saturday filipino get together!
jygva, yes, plain oatmeal will work. the oatmeal cookie recipe has plain oatmeal. but i suggest quick cooking oatmeal.
connie,
yeah i wii try this 2nyt for my kids.
hi connie! im interested in tryin this oatmeal pie .i dont have a cake pan, is it ok to use a pyrex glass pie dish?
i’ve tried a lot of your recipes and they all tastes great!thanks for this website!more power!
Hello Connie, do you think frozen mangoes ok? coz, we don’t have fresh mango here it’s either can or frozen only.pls.reply thanks!
fatima, you won’t be able to lift it out whole but if you don’t mind imperfectly shaped slices, why not?
Iv, I can’t guess since I have no idea what the consistency of your frozen mangoes is.
Ms Connie,
It’s me again lv! again ask ko lang pwede ba young nasa can na mangoes? or what if i use na lang fresh peaches kasi marami dito niyan. ols, reply ASAP.
ms. connie, pwede ko bang gamitin ang fresh peaches kasi mahirap hanapin ang mangoes here. tyou!
Iv, I’ve never tried canned mangoes so it’s hard to tell if they’re a good substitute. Fresh peaches are much more sour than fresh ripe mangoes so the baked pie will taste different.
Hi Ms. Connie, I’m addicted to your website!You’re enticing recipes awakened the chef in me. (naks!)
Just wanna share, I used frozen mangoes and plain oatmeal. I just added some pitted dates and peanuts to add some flavor to the pie crust. I was a bit worried about using frozen mangoes but the final product turned out great! It’s a yummy and perfect recipe for oatmeal in disguise
The addition of dates sounds great! Now, that’s inspired baking.
