  • With Oats: Use 1 1/2 cups rolled oats in place of the pretzels in the recipe. Omit the 3 tablespoons melted butter and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar from the recipe. Stir the rolled oats into the pie filling mixture and pour into the unbaked pie crust. Bake for 30 minutes at 350º F. 
  • With Oats and Coconut: Use 2/3 cup rolled oats and 2/3 cup shredded coconut in place of the pretzels in the recipe. Omit the pretzels, 3 tablespoons melted butter, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar from the recipe. Stir the rolled oats and shredded coconut into the pie filling mixture and pour into the unbaked pie crust. Bake for 30 minutes at 350º F. 
  • To store: Store it covered in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. 
  • To freeze: Wrap the pie entirely in foil, wrapping it entirely around the top and bottom of the pie. Place into a freezer-safe zip-top bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
