Time 15m

Yield 1 8 or 9-inch pie crust, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 12-14 whole crackers)
1/4 cup sugar
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Steps:

Combine cracker crumbs and sugar in a bowl, then add the butter and optional cinnamon.
Stir with a fork until crumbs are moistened.
Empty the mixture in the pie plate, then pat and press mixture evenly all around the bottom and sides of the plate.
Before filling, either bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 8-10 minutes or chill for about an hour.
(You simply want the crust to be firm and both baking and chilling will do that, although I prefer baking.).

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
3/4 cup graham or whole-wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1 large egg

Steps:

In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Using an electric mixer, cream butter, brown sugar, and honey until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl. With mixer on low speed, add egg, and mix until combined, Add flour mixture, and mix until combined.
Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll between two sheets of parchment to a 1/8-to-1/4-inch thickness. Remove top piece of parchment paper and place dough on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
Using a fluted pastry wheel, cut dough into 2 1/4-inch squares and prick dough with a fork to create dotted lines. Transfer to two parchment-lined baking sheets and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Bake graham crackers until golden brown, rotating sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer crackers to a wire rack to cool completely.
