Hey y'all...hope you're having a Happy 4th of July weekend. I'm enjoying my short vistit in Texas with my daughter's family. I alway's say..."cherish every moment." If you've been watching the news you know exactly what I mean. The Texas flooding is devastating...I have no words...except 'please pray for all." As a mother...Gege...I just can't imagine the pain families are going through. I raised my daughter near the Guadalupe river. I've seen the devasation years ago when the river rose. So if you're reading this...hug your child...your loved ones....life is precious and can change in an instant. I hope you are having family time during this Holiday or gathering with friends. This no fail...easy graham cracker crust is super easy and delish. I love a graham cracker crust due to it being so versatile. I use this pie crust recipe in most of my pies. You can bake it ahead before you fill or just place in fridge to set up. I will warn you if you do bake it be ready for the aroma of walking into a bakery. Oh my goodness...the hint of cinnamom and my secret ingredient "walnuts." will leave your kitchen smelling wonderful. Yes...you can buy a graham cracker crust already made but I'm hoping the easy recipe inspires you to make your own, I'll be sharing soon some receipes for your summer recipes using this fun & easy recipe. Honestly...if you're like me...I love a graham cracker crust all year! ;-) I thank y'all so much for following and check back soon for more easy and versatile recipies. Wishing y'all a wonderful weekend!

Here's all you need...
* One "sleeve" ...pkg. graham cracker crust
* !/4 cup walnuts
* 2 Tb. granulated sugar
* 1 tsp. cinnamon
* 6 Tb.melted butter
Here's all you do...
* Prepare your pie crust pan as desired.
Tip...I prepare mine by coating the bottom and sides using a stick of butter then I cut a piece of parchment paper to the bottom of pie pan size. This helps with easy removal when slicing your pie ;-)
* Pulse all ingredients (except butter) in food processor until smooth.
* Add in melted butter and pulse until it becomes a crumbly texture.
* Place in pie crust and use a spoon or use the bottom of a meauring cup to smooth crumble on bottom and up sides.
Tip...I use my fingers at the top to help smooth the edges but don't over think it...for me the more rustic is better. Your pie crust will definately impress your friends and family with a "homemade vibe" but it's easy and delish. My kind of entertaining!
Enjoy & talk soon,
Cat
