Ingredients

  • 1 C Butter
  • 1/3 C Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 C Sugar
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp Honey
  • 3 C Flour
  • 1 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon

Instructions

  • Thoroughly combine the flour and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
  • With an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars in a large bowl.
  • Add honey to the butter mixture and continue beating.
  • In several additions, beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture.  It will obviously and quickly change to a graham cracker color, and form fine crumbles.
  • Refrigerate the dough for about 2 hours.
  • If you're baking this crust before filling it, preheat the oven to 325⁰ F.
  • Divide the dough evenly between two pie pans, and press into the pans forming the base and sides.  You can also just fill one pie pan and save the rest in the refrigerator for another time.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes.
