I found this about 30 years ago as a prize winning recipe in a magazine. I've since tweaked it to "healthy-fy" it a little. The crust really is worth the little bit of effort it is. A very different taste and texture from the usual graham cracker crust, nutty and crunchy, really good!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup. In 9x13 pan, combine crust ingredients. Bake 15-20 mins. until golden brown, stir once while baking. Reserve 1/2 c. crumbs for top.
- Using a spoon, firmly press remaining warm crumb mixture into an ungreased 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Chill crust in frig. until no longer hot.
- In medium bowl blend first three filling ingredients until smooth. Spread over crust. Fold pie filling into whipped topping. Spoon over cream cheese layer. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mix. Chill 1-2 hours before serving. (store in refrigerator). EASY! PRETTY! WONDERFUL!
- Note: back in the "old" days whipped topping was not recommended. Now days, it has improved and can be reduced fat and/or sugar free and still works great!
