Servings 1 graham cracker base
- 1 1/2 c. Graham crackers crumbs/tea biscuits crumbs
- 1/8 c. sugar granulated
- 1/2 c. butter, unsalted (100g)
Measure out your graham cracker crumbs and place them into either a 9" pie dish or a 9”x13” dish. If using whole graham crackers or tea biscuits, place them into a bag and crush them up then pour them into the dish. Crushing the graham crackers can be done by either using a food processor or rolling pin.
Add the sugar and mix together with the graham crackers.
Melt your butter either on the stove or in the microwave. Combine crushed melted butter with the graham crackers and sugar, mixing until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a pie or tart pan, ensuring an even thickness.
Bake at 350℉/180℃/Gas Mark 4 for 15 minutes, or until it is lightly golden and set.
Remove from the oven and allow the crust to cool completely before adding the filling.
