Recipe from: Famous Desserts Cookbook

"Crumb crusts can be cooked or not, but the very slight extra effort
expended on the baked kind will repay with a crust of greater stability and
better flavor. Some cooks like to sprinkle the top of the pie filling with
crumbs, rather than garnish with whipped cream or a topping; if extra
crumbs are required, increase the ingredient by about a fourth. If you own
a food processor, use the chopping blade to make fresh crumbs in a flash."
