Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  2. 2

    Place the cereal in a plastic bag and seal. Use a rolling pin to crush the cereal into crumbs, turning and shaking the bag frequently to make a consistent crumb. You should have around 1 1/2 cups of crumbs when complete.

    Pour brown sugar and water into a small bowl and stir until incorporated into a syrup.

  4. 4

    Mix in melted butter and applesauce into the brown sugar syrup mix. Stir until blended.

  5. 5

    Pour crumbs into a medium bowl stir in cinnamon or spice. Stir with a fork until well blended and evenly distributed.

  6. 6

    Pour small bowl of wet mix into the crumby dry mix. Stir with a fork until well blended and evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Press the crumb mixture into a pie dish. It will not stick as well as a traditional graham cracker crust, just press gently.

  8. 8

    Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until set. Cool slightly, then fill as desired.
