When someone asks if you'd like cake or pie, why not say you want cake and pie?

Mock Pecan Pie

1 1/4 cups brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar
3 large eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 unbaked pie shell
Vanilla ice cream, optional

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a pie dish with unbaked pie crust.

In a large bowl, stir together brown sugar, oats, sugar, and salt, then stir in milk, beaten eggs, butter, and vanilla extract.

Continue stirring until fully combined.

Pour mixture into pie shell, then place in oven.

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until pie is cooked through.

Remove from oven and let cool 10-15 minutes, then serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
