Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, chopped pecans, melted butter, sugar, peanut butter, and salt. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Form the crust

    Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even layer. Make sure to press it up the sides of the pan slightly.

  3. 3

    Bake the crust

    Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until it is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
