Notes

Variations. For a chocolatey pie crust, replace the graham crackers with original Oreos. You do not need to remove the Oreo filling—just crush them in a food processor and use them the same way as graham cracker crumbs.
Fillings. The options are endless! Some of our favorite pies to make with a graham cracker crust include Key Lime Pie, Cream Pie, Chocolate Cream Pie, and Pumpkin Pie.
