    I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but its low fat, and very simple, its from whatgracecooked BlogSpot. I've used it for various little cooking things (I hate baking, but this Is easy I don't even have to do the last step with pie weights really, just mold the dough into some mini cupcake tins or tart pan, then after you've baked it, fill in with filling/topping and finish up! tastes similar to a graham cracker crust but is easy, light, and probably better for you (don't quote me)

    INGREDIENTS
    For the crust:
    3/4 cup oat flour
    3/4 cup white-whole wheat flour
    pinch salt
    2 tbsp maple syrup
    1 egg yolk
    1/4 cup olive oil
    1/4 cup plain greek yogurt

    For the crust:
    1. Combine flours and salt in a bowl. Make a well in the middle, and add remaining crust ingredients. Stir until just combined. Cover and refrigerate for one hour.
    2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare 4 four-inch miniature tart pans by spraying with cooking spray. Arrange on a baking sheet. Press 1/4 of the chilled dough into each tart pan, pressing up the sides to the edge of the pan.
    3. Lay a small piece of aluminum foil in each pan, and fill with dried beans (or use pie weights). Bake the tart shells for about 10 minutes
