To make it easier for you to find exactly the kind of pie recipe you're after, I've broken this post down into sections.  Just click on the links below to jump straight to each category.

Baked Pie Recipes with Graham Cracker Crust

Classic graham cracker crust typically gets baked, unfilled, for 10-15 minutes, then cooled before use.  Of course, if you're buying a pre-made crust from the grocery store, the crust is already prepared for you.  This section of pie recipes contains pies that are cooked in the oven after the filling is added to the graham cracker crust.

1. Pumpkin Pie with Graham Cracker Crust

I have a friend who loves pumpkin pie--but hates traditional pie crusts.  I'd never even considered making pumpkin pie with a graham cracker pie crust until I had it at her house.  The warm flavor of the pumpkin pie spice and the custard filling and the buttery graham cracker crust was amazing!  That pumpkin pie recipe inspired this whole post, and I'm never going back.  This is an easy pumpkin pie to make, whether you make your own crust or buy it from the store.

2. Pecan Pie with Graham Cracker Crust

Pecan pie is another traditional Thanksgiving recipe that's usually made with a pastry crust--but it doesn't have to be!  The graham cracker crumbs are combined with brown sugar instead of regular sugar in this recipe for pecan pie with a graham cracker crust.  The brown sugar in the crust really compliments the rich, caramel-like flavor of the pecan pie filling.

3. Apple Pie with Graham Cracker Crust

Yes, you can even make fruit pies like apple pie with a graham cracker crust!  This apple pie recipe also features an amazing buttery crumb topping on top of the pie.  What could be easier--or more delicious? Cut me a slice and don't forget a scoop of vanilla ice cream, please!

4. Classic Key Lime Pie Recipe

Slice of key lime pie garnished with lime slices and whipped cream, on a square white plate.  Two limes, one sliced in half, sit on the plate next to the pie and a fork sits behind the pie.

Key lime pie is probably the most iconic pie that's usually made with a graham cracker crust.  And it's a classic for a reason--that creamy, tangy lime custard filling pairs so well with the buttery, sweet graham cracker crust!  Sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and egg yolks combine to make this easy, flavorful, tart custard pie filling.  Garnish with whipped cream, lime slices, and a little lime zest for an authentic taste of the Florida Keys.

5. Lemon Pie with Graham Cracker Crust

This classic lemon pie recipe is basically the same as key lime pie, but instead of key limes, lemons are used.  It's bright and fresh and delicious and cool and perfect on a summer day, but I'd be equally delighted to eat this pie any time of year.  

6. Margarita Pie with Salted Graham Cracker Crust
