How to Make Graham Cracker Crumb Crust Mix

  1. Place 6-7 graham crackers in a blender or food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process until you have fine crumbs.
  2. Alternatively, place graham crackers in a sturdy plastic bag and crush into fine crumbs using a rolling pin.
  3. Repeat steps 1 or 2 until you have processed all desired graham crackers (amount will depend on desired yield).
  4. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional).
  5. Transfer the graham cracker crumb mixture to an airtight 10-cup container.
  6. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
  7. **To make a pie crust:** Combine 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumb mix with 1/3 cup (6 tablespoons) melted unsalted butter.
  8. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 or 9-inch pie plate or springform pan.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes before adding your pie filling.
  10. **For a baked crust:** Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  11. Cool completely before adding your filling. Fill as desired!
