How to Make a Homemade Pumpkin Pie Crust, Very Easy

Thanksgiving is approaching quick. This article is on how I made a homemade pumpkin pie crust that was easy and cheap to make.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• honey graham crackers
• melted butter

1. Okay here we go, first buy a box of honey graham crackers, you can use any type that you would like. I prefered the taste of the honey myself.
   Take the whole box and get a ziplock bag and smash them down into crumbs. I think this is the fun part, have the kids help with this as it will need to be smashed very well.

2. Now that is done add butter to moisten the crumbs. Add the butter as you feel it needs. Heat the mixture as well, not to much but it makes it easier to mold the butter with the crumbs. The crumbs need to become like a clay I want to say that way you can form it into a crust.

3. 

   Now the last step to making your own homemade pumpkin pie crust is to take the crust and mold it to a pie plate. To make the little marks on the side just use a fork and go around the whole pie to get that nice look.

Tips & Warnings

• Do not use too much butter add a little as you go.
• Have the kids help with making the graham crackers into crumbs.
• Be careful when melting butter, it may get very hot very quick.
