Cook time: 10 minutes
Yield: Makes one 9” pie crust
Ingredients:
1
3/4 cups gingersnap crumbs

1
Tbsp whole wheat flour
1/2
tsp Kosher salt
4
Tbsp (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Directions:
1. Using a food processor, blend about 3 cups of gingersnap cookies into crumbs. You should yield about 1¾ cups.
