Why make an oat crust? Oats are high in heart-healthy fiber, and it is simple to make a flour out of oats with a blender. Most quiches use wheat flour and butter, but this one uses oil which has heart-healthy fats. Make these for your friends or family and they will be sure to impress! Try serving this with our Watermelon with Mint and Honey Yogurt Dip.
