How Much Is 1 Cup Of Graham Crackers

I have a recipe that calls for one cup of graham cracker crumbs. How many crackers am I going to need to crush?

I'm having trouble finding an answer partly because different people consider a cracker to be of various sizes. I would consider a cracker to be a full sized sheet like this:

Graham

It would also be helpful to know what a cup of graham cracker crumbs weighs. My box of crackers is 14.4oz. I could estimate what portion of the box to use if I know how much a cup of crumbs weighs.

Soft And Chewy Graham Cracker Cookies

It should be about 7 crackers per cup, maybe 8, depending how finely you crush them. One of the inner packages from your 14.4oz box should be plenty (there are probably three packages with 9 in each, or 4.8oz). If you need to go the other way, that's 1/7 to 1/8 cup per cracker, or more simply, 0.5oz or 15g per cracker.

I know this from making graham cracker crusts - and you can confirm it by looking at some recipes. You generally need 1.5 cups of crumbs for a pie crust, and it takes 10-12 crackers. I've seen recipes ranging from 9 to 12 crackers (and checked ten or so when writing this), but I don't think I've ever used fewer than 10. One cup is 2/3 of that, 7 or 8 crackers. (Some people do say 20 or 24 squares, but they're clearly half-cracker squares, not the whole crackers.)

For what it's worth, the Martha Stewart crust recipe says 6 1/2 ounces graham crackers (12 crackers), finely ground (1 1/2 cups), and 2/3 of that is 4 1/3 oz, pretty close to 1/3 of your box, maybe a cracker short, so by weight this works out too.

(I don't care that this thread is old, I was looking for this answer and this was one of the top three Google results.)

I just pulverized 8 full sheets (Honey Maid, 8 sheets come per wax paper package, 3 of those per box), which resulted in a scant 1 1/2 C of crumbs (just shy of 1 1/2 C, more than 1 1/4 C.) Those 8 sheets netted approximately 4.9 oz of crumb according to my scale.

Revised by Chef_Code Answers may vary depending on crumb size of the graham crackers as well as if you pack down the cup, because of the possibility of these variables weight to volume as well as volume to weight conversion results may vary. all answers above are close but are still to be considered approximate. Here is a source for more information on the math. If the link breaks in the future here is an additional link

Honey Maid Honey Graham Crackers, Easter Baking, Family Size, 25.6 Oz

Roughly it should be 4.8 ounces of 27 graham crackers or 1 pack of this brand. I did a little bit of a back calculation using this recipe.

190 gms is equivalent to 1.5 cups, so 1 cup should have 127gms which is equivalent to 4.48 ounces and almost close to a pack of 4.8 ounces but if you want accuracy then you need 25 crackers of the brand that I mentioned in 1

Graham crackers are definitely smaller than they used to be when I was growing up. For my recipe, I used Honey Maid from the 14.4 ounce box containing 3 packs with 9 crackers in each. I followed the first answer I saw -- 10 crackers -- and it was just short of the 1.5 cups of crumbs I needed. I had to crush 2 more crackers to get 1.5 cups.

How Much Is The Serving Size Of Graham Crackers For Adults & Children

Just ran one inner package of graham crackers through the food processor. It made 1 1/4 cups of crumbs. So, an entire box (14.4 oz) will yield approx. 3 3/4 cups of crumbs. I suggest you you run an entire box of crackers through the food processor and store in an air tight container and measure what you need, when you need it.

Kitchen Tips: Easy Graham Cracker Crust Recipe

This delightful crust is an essential ingredient for many of our favorite desserts, and there is no denying the way that it compliments different fillings, from fruity to chocolatey.

Graham

1 cup of graham cracker crumbs = 1 sleeve of whole graham crackers = 9 graham cracker sheets. So you will need approximately 14 graham crackers for one 9-inch pie crust.

STEP ONE: Pulse graham crackers in a food processor or place them in a Ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they form even fine crumbs.

STEP THREE: Melt butter in a heat-proof bowl in the microwave. Pour melted butter into the graham cracker crumb mixture and pulse (or stir) until evenly combined.

You can use salted or unsalted butter. The melted butter and the sugar together help form a “glue” that holds the crust together.

The melted butter (in the oven and somewhat when the crust is unbaked) dissolves the sugar, creating a liquid glue that then hardens with cooling.

How To Make Th Best Graham Cracker Crust

This recipe fills one standard 9-inch pie plate or springform pan. It will also fill a deep-dish 9-inch pie dish, but it will be a little bit thinner.

For a 9×13-inch baking dish, you will need to multiply the recipe by 1.5 – so 2 cups of crumbs, ¾ cup melted butter, and ½ cup sugar.

STEP FIVE: Use your fingers or the flat bottom of a measuring cup to pack the crust tightly and evenly into the bottom of the pan.

STEP SEVEN: Alternately, bake the crust in a 350°F oven for 6 to 8 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Allow it to cool completely before adding pie filling.

This homemade pie crust would be a great choice to use for classic recipes such as our cheesecake, or how about one of our no-bake dessert recipes, such as our strawberry Cool Whip pie?

ON THE COUNTER: The crust itself can be kept at room temperature, but once you add filling, you will need to follow the storage instructions for the pie itself. You can cover the pie in plastic wrap and store it in the fridge.

Pre-baking a graham cracker crust helps set the crust, but it is optional to pre-bake. The alternative is to chill the crust in the freezer before using it.

If your graham crust is too hard, it is possible that you added too much butter to the crumb mixture. Once chilled in the fridge, the melted butter will harden, leaving your crust hard.

To keep the graham cracker crust crispy, baking it helps to firm it up. You should also allow your filling to cool before pouring it into the crust.

The butter is the key to ensuring that your graham crust doesn’t fall apart. Make sure all the crumbs are well coated in the melted butter when making the crust.
