The ingredients & instructions are listed below the video for measurements & directions. Please enjoy this webisode of Cooking with Kimberly:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 5 – 7 tbsp butter – melted
- 1 tbsp sugar
Instructions:
- Either crush your graham crackers in a large, resealable, plastic bag with a rolling pin or jar until they are just crumbs, or you can crush them in a food processor, or you can buy them already in crumbs.
- In a mixing bowl or directly in the baking dish, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar & 5 tbsp melted butter until combined.
- Tip: The mixture should ball together, but not be very wet. If they do not stick, add 1 tsp of butter at a time until they do. The consistency should be that of wet sand.
- Pour the mixture into your pie plate, and press the crumbs onto the bottom and sides evenly to make a crust without holes or dips.
- Allow pie crust to cool completely before filling it, if you just baked the crust.
- Fill the crust with your pie filling and bake, if necessary for filling, or fill crust and serve when filling is set, as in the case of ‘no-bake’ pies.
You’ll be happy to have this Graham Cracker Pie Crust recipe up your sleeve, especially for special occasions.
