- Pour in the oil, then milk and stir everything together. If the dough seems too dry, add 1-2 Tbsp of milk.1/2 cup (125ml) vegetable oil, 1/4 cup (60ml) milk
- Once the dough starts to form, finish working it by gently kneading it on a sheet of wax paper.
- Roll out between 2 sheets of wax paper. Remove the top sheet of wax paper. Use the bottom sheet to lift and flip the dough onto the pie plate. Fit the crust onto the plate and finish the edges as desired.
- For the filling, mix together the sugar, flour, cinnamon and toffee bits in a large bowl.1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1/3 cup (42g) all-purpose flour, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 cup (75g) toffee candy bits

- Place the pie on top of a baking sheet and bake for 60-75 min or until the filling is bubbling. Loosely cover with foil after 45 min to prevent over browning. The baking sheet is used to prevent any of the filling that spills over from burning onto the bottom of your oven.
