Instructions:
- First, go ahead and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it’s nice and hot when you’re ready to bake.
- In a large bowl, combine the crushed cornflakes, melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix it all up until everything is evenly coated!
- Next, grab a 9-inch pie pan and press that cornflake mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides to make a crust. Don’t be shy with it; it should feel sturdy!
- Pop that crust into the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes. You want it to be lightly golden, so keep an eye on it.
- Once it’s done baking, let it cool completely before adding your favorite filling, whether it’s fruit, custard, or something chocolatey. Get creative!
