Smulpaj (crumb pie) is a Swedish dessert. It differs from traditional pies in that it has no pastry shell; instead, fillings are added directly to the pie dish after greasing. Butter is mixed with sugar, wheat flour and oatmeal to make a crumbly dough[1] that is strewn over the fillings. This is then baked as the crust.
