To make the crust mix all the ingredients together until it forms a wet dough.
Push the dough into a greased 9 inch pie dish with your fingers and try to get a level and even crust. It should be about 1/2cm thick.
Cook crust in oven at 170c for about 15 mins or until it is golden brown.
Once done remove and cool crust.
To make the filling just thoroughly blend all the pie filling until smooth.
Once the crust is cool pour the filling into it and then bake for about an hour at 180c or until the filling is firm and no longer wobbles.
If you pie crust rises in the oven just use a fork/spoon to gently push it it back to return the definition.
Serve with soured cream, kefir or on its own.
Eat hot or cold.
