Ingredients

  • 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs about 14 full sheets of graham cracker
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the graham cracker crumbs and the sugar to a medium bowl. Stir well to combine. Pour in the melted butter and stir into the graham cracker crumb mixture until well combined.
  2. Pour the graham cracker mixture into a pie plate and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
No Bake Graham Cracker Crust
  1. Once the graham cracker mixture has been pressed into the pie plate, place in the refrigerator to chill until firm, about 1 hour.
Baked Graham Cracker Crust
  1. Preheat the oven to 375º F. Once the graham cracker mixture has been pressed into the pie plate, place in the oven to bake until lightly golden brown and fragrant, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before adding filling.

Notes

  • Make Ahead and Freezing Instructions
  • For a no-bake crust, wrap well with plastic wrap and keep your crust stored in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • For a baked crust, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and store in a cool, dry place for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Note: When freezing, I like to slide my pie plate into a very large zip-top freezer bag as well.
