Perfect Oreo Pie Crust
It’s SO easy to make an Oreo Crust – and doing it at home means you can make it using any flavor Oreos! I love no bake pies all year long – but especially in summer when my oven isn’t getting turned on. Stop buying pie crusts and make your own with this easy recipe!
Why you’ll love this recipe
- It’s a 2 ingredient Oreo crust!
- You do not have to remove the cream from the Oreos!
- Use ANY flavor Oreo cookie, including a Golden Oreo Crust! Whenever someone says “Oreo Crust” I’m sure you think of the kind made from traditional Oreos. I always think of that one too. I mean, it’s the perfect base for, say, a peanut butter chocolate cream pie. But you can use any flavor you want!
2 Ingredients Needed
- Oreos – Have you ever noticed all the different flavor Oreos out there? I mean, I love the traditional chocolate but if I must admit it…I like the Golden Oreos better. I especially like them as a pie crust.
- Unsalted Butter – You can swap salted if that’s what you have.
How to make Oreo Pie Crust
- Crush your whole Oreo cookies using a food processor. You do not have to remove the cream center! Don’t have a food processor? You can roll the cookies in a large bag using a rolling pin, however you want a fine crumb so they stick together. Rolling isn’t as great at it as the food processor, so I recommend using it.
- Melt your butter in a medium bowl.
- Add the cookie crumbs to the melted butter and stir with a fork. The fork helps the butter mix into the cookies without too much clumping.
- Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie plate or springform pan, depending on the recipe you’re using. This will also work as a thinner crust in a 10-inch pie plate or a 9-inch deep dish pie pan, but don’t use anything smaller than a 9-inch.
Variations
- Use peanut butter Oreos to make a peanut butter pie.
- Mint Chip Oreos are perfect for no bake cheesecake!
- Lemon Oreos would be delicious with a Lemon Cheesecake

Perfect Oreo Cookie Crust Recipe
Equipment
Ingredients
- 25 (286g) Oreo Cookies your favorite flavor
- 5 tablespoons (70g) unsalted Challenge Butter , melted
Instructions
- Finely crush your cookies. I like to use a food processor for this step, but you can also place the cookies in a plastic bag and roll the sealed bag with a rolling pin. If you’re using a rolling pin, seal the bag but leave about an inch open for air to escape. You’ll have to put some muscle in it to get a fine crush. The crust sticks together best when the cookies are crushed finely.
- NOTE: You do NOT need to remove the filling from the Oreo.
- Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together with a fork. Press crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a 9″ pie plate. Chill until ready to fill.
- For a no-bake pie: chill the crust about 30 minutes before filling, then fill/chill as directed in the recipe.
- For a crunchier no-bake filling pie: bake the crust for 8 minutes at 350°F then cool completely before filling.
- For a filled baked pie: Fill with filling and bake as directed in the recipe.
- This crust can also be pressed into a 9×9 inch pan for pie bars or used as a cheesecake crust in a 9-10″ springform pan.

That crust looks a million times better than the store-bought oreo crust – can’t wait to try it out!  School’s out already there?  My kids still have another month.  Do they go back to school before September then, or do you just get a really long summer?!  I wonder this every year when people start talking about school ending in May!  🙂
They go back in mid-August. It’s early, but it’s so freaking hot here that it’s fine with me! LOL
Haha, I LOVE National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation! And yes, being sick in summer is totally wrong — I’m sure she’ll be fine anyway! I can think of so many ways I’d like to fill this!
I’m so guilty of using store bought crusts, but I do love a good homemade one! Don’t think I’ve ever made one with golden oreos, definitely going to have to try that! 🙂
And don’t forget the moms scurrying around the last week for cards and gifts for the teachers/aides/office help/principal! Â Thanks for this recipe – another one I didn’t know I needed till I saw it!
OMG I know. I have cookies made and bagged with no tags. And I have to deliver them today. So…I may just throw them at the people and say thanks! 🙂
Have never thought of using the vanilla! Â Thank you for both
I totally get how you feel! I can’t believe next year I’ll have a 4th grader…..(where does time go!?) This crust, though…..looks completely awesome, easy, delicious, and tear-free!!!
Pinning this for reference! love the idea of using golden oreos- I’ve tried the mint oreos in no bake tarts and they’ve worked wonderfully 🙂
Thanks for pinning!
Such a great tutorial! I am 100% on the no-bake train. Also coming down with a cold, so maybe Jordan and I can be friends.
Yes, why do the kids go to school this week? WHY? All the 1st grade classes watched movies yesterday. Um, what? Anyway, do I even need to tell you how much I love this recipe? Oreos. Check. No bake. Check. And pie. Check. Like all my favorite things in one place. CHECK.
Right? Movie today, movie tomorrow. Or we could just be at home…
Good luck to Jordan for 5th grade and the talent show, you must be a proud mum! This crust looks amazing, it looks like the perfect ratio of oreos to butter; some crusts can be waaaayy too dry or seriously greasy, this is perfect!Â
