Press-in Pie Crust


Ingredients

Makes one 9-inch pie crust
  • 6 ounces cookies (about 12 graham crackers, 46 vanilla wafers, or 30 chocolate wafers, such as Famous) - though notes online say it might take more like 9 oz cookies
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, pulse cookies until finely ground (you should have about 1 1/2 cups). Add sugar, salt, and butter and pulse until combined.
  2. Firmly press crumb mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. (If using a springform pan, press crumbs halfway up sides.) Bake until crust is dry and set, about 12 minutes. Let cool completely in plate on a wire rack before filling.
