FAQs
Can I make this pie ahead of time?
Yes, it’s great for meal prep. Assemble it the night before and chill until ready to serve.
Is this breakfast pie gluten-free?
Yes, if you use certified gluten-free oats.
Can I make it dairy-free?
Absolutely—just use a plant-based yogurt like coconut or almond yogurt.
What kind of yogurt works best?
Thick Greek yogurt or any unsweetened, creamy plant-based alternative works best.
Can I bake the crust instead of chilling it?
You can bake it at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes for a firmer, toasted crust.
What can I use instead of dates?
Try dried figs, raisins, or add a spoonful of maple syrup for stickiness.
Will the crust hold together well?
Yes, especially if it’s well chilled. Press it firmly into the pan to help it set.
Can I freeze this pie?
Freezing is not recommended, as the yogurt and fruit texture will change after thawing.
How do I prevent the kiwi from making the yogurt watery?
Pat kiwi slices dry before placing them on top and add them right before serving if storing for later.
