  1. Place graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until fine crumb forms. Alternatively, place them in a large ziplock bag and roll with a rolling pin or another heavy object until fine crumbs form.
  2. Stir sugar and graham cracker crumbs together. Mix in melted butter until fully combined and all crumbs are wet, like sand.
  3. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie pan using the bottom of a flat measuring cup or glass. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours until firm for a no-bake recipe. To bake, preheat oven to 350°F and bake the crust for 7-9 minutes, then continue with the recipe directions.
