Cornmeal Pie Pastry

This was a nice change from a regular crust. It reminded me of a cornmeal cookie. I par baked this just a couple minutes too long waiting for it to brown, and it got a little hard and difficult to cut. After the pie came out of the oven I realized that the crust doesn't really take on the golden color I was expecting - it was not burned or tough, just a little crunchy. Paired great with Ben's Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie (page 281).
