Crusted desserts (4)
I believe the answer is:
pies
'crusted desserts' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for pies that I've seen before include "Pastry snacks" , "Tarts" , "Pastry crusts with fillings" , "Pastries" , "Pastry-topped puddings" .)
