Method

  1. 1

    Mix together the wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Add the oil and mix. Pour in the water and mix quickly into a dough.

  2. 2

    Press the dough onto the bottom and sides of a greased pie dish (⌀ 26 cm). Use flour to help if needed.

  3. 3

    Pre-bake the crust on the lowest rack of a 200-degree oven for about 12 minutes.

  4. 4

    Clean the mushrooms and chop larger ones into smaller pieces. Clean and chop the leek. Sauté the leek in margarine in a pan. Add the mushrooms and simmer until the liquid released by the mushrooms has almost completely evaporated. Season with salt.

  5. 5

    Mix the cooking cream, eggs, grated cheese, and pepper in a bowl. Save some of the grated cheese to sprinkle on top of the pie.

  6. 6

    Spread the mushroom filling over the pre-baked crust. Pour the cream mixture over it and sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top.

  7. 7

    Bake the pie on the middle rack of the oven for 20–25 minutes, until the filling is set and has a beautiful color. Serve the chanterelle pie cooled, for example with a salad.
