I am by no means a food blogger or expert, but, if I find a recipe that is easy and can save time for moms, I’ll share it! That is exactly what this pour over pie crust recipe is!

4 ingredients and your favorite pie filling and you have a quick and yummy dinner! My mother uses this recipe often and hubby says he prefers it to roll out crust.
Prepare your pie filling the way you always do. I like using a soup with the meat as a filling so that it is not dry and doesn’t require additional gravy. Simply mix 125ml vegetable/olive oil, 125ml milk, 1 cup of flour, 1 egg plus salt if you prefer, together. The mixture should be runny. Pour over the pie filling and bake for 15-20 minutes or until brown at 180’C/350’F.

Yummy, quick and easy! This pour-over pie crust has been a lifesaver for having dinner on the table quickly. Plus, kids can also help with dinner prep, it is so easy. Enjoy!

Really an amazing recipe
This recipe was exactly what I was looking for! I want to make an easy chicken pot pie without having to make a crust or buy the refrigerated kind. I can’t wait to try this for dinner tonight. Thanks for a great time-saving recipe.
Best recipe ever u can also put this over fruit to make a cobbler just add sugar 1/2 cup, and butter
How much butter please?
No butter. You need oil.
Can you prepare pumpkin pie with the crust over? Perhaps start the pie filling first for 30 minutes and then pour over the crust on top and put in the oven for 30 minutes more?
I am not sure. It is a soft crust, almost biscuit-like. You will have to try it and let me know;)
What type of flour is correct? The recipe states plain flour, yet, the written comment indicates self-rising – perhaps I will have to experiment. Thanks in advance for response.
Apologies for the confusion. All fixed now. I prefer Plain flour. Self-raising works too if you want a fluffier crust.
Has anyone tried this with a grain free flour such as a mix of almond etc? I will try on a small version to see. I would certainly make more dinner pies if so.
Have not, let me know how you go!
Can you use gluten free flour for this and get the same result? Thank you
I have not tried it before. Give it a go and let me know!
Mine was not runny
I did use 1 cup of flour and 1/2 cup of oil and milk and 1 egg
what did I do wrong? I had to spoon it on and spread it. I baked it a bit longer than suggested and it was good
I’d still like to know what I did wrong
Thanks
Kat
Just add a tiny bit more milk and oil next time;)
