Makes 1 (9-inch) crust

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (200 grams) gingersnap crumbs (see Note)
  • ¼ cup (55 grams) firmly packed light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) kosher salt
  • ¼ cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together gingersnap crumbs, brown sugar, and salt. Add melted butter, stirring until well combined. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, gently press crumb mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

Note: For the best results, the crumbs you use should be fine, like the texture of a nut meal. You should not see any chunks.
