Petzel and Pecan Crust for Cold Pies

This Pie crust is UNBELIEVABLE!!! You can make it with butter
flavored Crisco instead of real butter for a Dairy Free version.
You will need the following,
2 cups salted GF Dairy, Egg Free Pretzels, I use Glutino
1 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 T. unsalted butter or Crisco- melted

In a food processor, pulse all dry ingredients until a very fine crumb
Add melted butter or Crisco and pulse until a moist ball of dough is formed.
Using your fingers, press dough into a 9" inch pie pan.
Bake for 8 minutes in a 325 degree oven.
Chill completely before you fill it with a cold pie filling
or cheesecake.
Chill until very very cold before serving.

You will never miss a graham cracker crust again! I guarantee!
