is that really 1 1/2 CUPS of oil or 1 1/2 tablespoons?

I am sorry for the typo! It should be 1/2 cup oil. It is a no roll crust.

We baked a pumpkin and we ended up making four pies from it. I stuck one in the freezer. Thank you for the yummy recipes. Last night Billy actually found a seed in his pie, made me smile.
