- Category: Pie Crust
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) graham cracker crumbs (about 11 cookies)
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- ⅓ cup (70 grams) granulated sugar or brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Mix together the ingredients.
- Pour the crumbs into the pie plate and start pressing the ingredients up the sides of the pie plate to form the edges first. Once the edges are formed work the crumbs down to evenly distribute into the bottom of the pie plate and pack it down into an even layer.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes, until lightly golden and fragrant. Or you can freeze for 30 minutes for a no-bake pie option.
- A baked graham cracker crust can be refrigerated and covered for about 3 days, or frozen up to 3 months.
Notes
You can switch up the granulated sugar for light brown sugar for a subtle flavor of caramel!
Troubleshooting tip: Very occasionally, some graham crackers can be more dry and require more butter. If your mixture is too crumbly to easily form into the pie plate, you can add 1 tablespoon more melted butter at a time until it reaches the right consistency. The crumbs should feel moist, but not so moist they are very liquidy.
