Graham Cracker Crust
Some desserts just need a graham cracker crust. It's a perfect pairing for the richness of cheesecake and a sweet pairing for tart key lime pie. You can use store-bought graham crackers, of course, but if you're feeling ambitious, I highly recommend starting with my Homemade Graham Crackers recipe.
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs about 5 oz.
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- pinch salt
- 2 oz unsalted butter melted
In a food processor, mix together the graham crackers, brown sugar, salt, and butter. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and press it out in an even layer.
Bake for about 12 minutes, until it starts to look lightly toasted.
