What is a good Oat replacement when you dont have enough oats (Making Pear Crisp pie )?

Question

We dont have enough oats to make the pie ( It calls for 2 cups we have 1 )

What is a good oat replacement??

Answer 1

Do you have some breakfast cereal like Cheerios to combine with the oats?

Answer 2

Nuts

Wheat Germ

Oat Bran

Flax Seed

Crushed cookie crumbs

Crushed cereal like Corn Flakes or Special K or Kashi

Answer 3

One cup is plenty, combine with flour, sugar and butter to make crumbs.  

Answer 4

corn flakes, or just up the flour butter mixture and crumble it over the pie

Answer 5

The cereal idea is a really great one. (I have made crisps using ONLY cereal) You can also substitute flour directly but you may want to add a tad more rising agent and a tad more liquid.

Ground nuts could also be used to replace some of the oats.
