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! Stop buying pie crusts and make your own with this easy recipe! This is the most delicious crust out there – it’s my favorite of all the pie crust recipes.
- It’s a 2 ingredient Oreo crust – cookies and butter – such simple ingredients!
- You do not have to remove the cream from the Oreos!
- Use ANY flavor Oreo cookie, including a Golden Oreo Crust!
2 Ingredients Needed
- Oreos – Regular Oreos (not double-stuf Oreos) are best for this recipe
- Unsalted Butter – You can swap salted if that’s what you have.
Variations
- Golden Oreos are the perfect all-purpose cookie if you don’t want to make a graham cracker crust.
- 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
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 oreo 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 dish or a 9-inch deep dish pie pan, but don’t use anything smaller than a 9-inch size pan. It will also work in a 10-inch tart pan.
What to do with Oreo Pie Crust?
So many dessert possibilities with making your own crust! You can add your favorite fillings but here are some of my favorites:
- No Bake Oreo Pie – the chocolate crust pairs perfectly with the creamy cheesecake filling.
- Jello Pie – mix and match Oreo flavors with your jello flavor.
- Strawberry Pudding Pie – perfect with Golden Oreos.

Oreo 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.

I made this yesterday. One glass pie dish and one aluminum.
The recipe went well, and the taste was fantastic.
The issue was that the Oreo crust stuck to the pie plates like cement.
It ruined the look of the pretty summer pie I made (and envisioned!)
Next time I’ll be spraying/ greasing the pie plates!
These have such great flavors for so many kinds of pies and they are easy too.
I am both gluten and lactose intolerant, so it is impossible to buy commercial pies that are worth eating. Using gluten free Oreos makes a wonderful crust that I can use for a variety of fillings. Thanks for sharing how you do this!! Making a chocolate cream pie for Thanksgiving (use lactose free real milk and Cool Whip non dairy topping)
I absolutely LOVE how easy it is to make Oreo crust! I really love ALL your recipes too. Thanks for sharing the video!
Hi Dorothy! Thanks for the recipe. It’s great! Question. Sometimes my crust is rock hard any reason as to why? Maybe cookie crumbs are to big or maybe too much butter? Thanks for your help! Happy Holidays!!
If you’ve chilled the crust it will get super hard because of the butter. Once it’s at room tempearture it should be easier to cut. Could this be what the problem is? To cut a chilled pie use a warmed knife and warmed pie server – that will help!
