Prepare the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are well-coated with butter and the mixture resembles wet sand.

Bake the Crust
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Bake the Filling
Return the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes. The filling should be set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from oven and let it cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
