Method

  • STEP 1

    Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3.

  • STEP 2

    Whizz 300g oatmeal biscuits to crumbs in a food processor (or put in a strong plastic bag and bash with a rolling pin).

    Put 3 medium egg yolks in a large bowl and whisk for a minute with electric beaters.

  • STEP 6

    Pour the filling into the cooled base then put back in the oven for 15 minutes. Cool then chill for at least 6 hours or overnight if you like. When you are ready to serve, carefully remove the pie from the tin and put on a serving plate.

  • STEP 7

    To decorate, softly whip together 300ml double cream and 1 tbsp icing sugar.
