How to Make Cinnamon Graham Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place 1 ½ cups (150g) cinnamon graham crackers in a large zip-top bag. Crush using a rolling pin until finely crumbed.
  3. Add 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted, to the bag. Seal tightly.
  4. Knead the bag gently until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Add 1-2 tablespoons more melted butter if needed to reach desired consistency.
  5. Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate or tart pan.
  6. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. If making a chilled pie, skip baking and proceed to step 7.
  7. For chilled pies: Refrigerate the crust for at least 30 minutes before adding your filling.
