This pie crust is made with phyllo dough, so it's super easy and quick to make. Plus, it's almost fat free so you can enjoy your pie without all the guilt.

4 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin or apple pie spice, allspice or cinnamon
4 sheets phyllo dough
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray 9" pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Make your pie filling and set aside.
To make crust, combine sugar with spice in a cup and set aside. Stack phyllo sheets, then cut in half to make 8 sheets. Cover with tea towel until ready to use. Place one sheet of phyllo on the pie pan spray with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp of sugar mixture. Repeat steps with remaining phyllo sheets, fanning them evenly until the entire pie pan rim is covered. Pour pie filling into shell and trim excess dough. To prevent crust edges from burning, cover loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees F. Then reduce temp to 350 degrees F (or the temperature your pie recipe calls for) and bake for necessary time.

a question. can phyllo dough be used as a pie crust for any type of pie???
It should work for any pie that calls for a pastry crust.
