Nut-lovers and nut-avoiders alike can dig into this "pecan" pie, which cleverly substitutes crispy rice cereal for nuts to mimic the taste and texture you love. To bring out a "nutty" flavor, the cereal is gently toasted in a skillet on the range top before being folded into the filling.
For the crust, place the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse three times to blend. Add the butter and pulse three more times. Continue to pulse while streaming in the water. Turn the dough out into some plastic wrap. Wrap tightly and refrigerate.
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
