Instructions
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
Allow the butter to cool momentarily so you don't scramble the egg; then add the egg, sugars, vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, salt, and whisk to combine until batter is smooth.
Add the flour, oats, and stir to incorporate. Fold in the apple pie filling.
Pour filling mixture into frozen pie crust (I didn't bother pre-thawing it)and lightly smooth filling with a spatula. It's okay to fill pie crust up nearly to the brim; I did and it did not overflow. As insurance, place pie crust on a baking tray so if it does overflow a bit, it won't pool in the bottom of the oven.
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until top has just set and is not jiggly, and is golden. I baked mine for about 54 minutes and when I took it out of the oven, the filling had risen and was a bit domed and puffed, and as pie cooled, the dome sank and it flattened out.
Allow pie to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Prior to serving, optionally drizzle with caramel sauce or serve with ice cream.
Notes
For an extra touch, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce before serving. Enjoy!
