Graham Cracker Crust Recipe
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
Combine all of the ingredients and press into a 9 inch pie pan.
Other options:
- You can use chocolate wafer cookies in place of the graham crackers or save cookie crumbs in a container in the freezer to use for this too.
- I also like to crush many graham crackers at once and store in an air tight container. Then all I need to do when I want a crust is to measure out what I need.
- You can use a little cinnamon in the crust too or use cinnamon graham crackers (cutting back on some of the sugar).
This is the recipe that I use when I make a graham cracker crust. I go one step further and let it bake in the pan for 10 mins at 325 before adding the filling. This helps keep the crust from being too crumbly when serving it.
Thank you for this!! I was wondering what the baking instructions were!!
This was very helpful especially for new cooks. Thanks for sharing.
