  1. To make the graham cracker crumbs, place the crackers in a zip-lock bag and crush with a rolling pin until they resemble fine breadcrumbs.
  2. Place the graham cracker crumbs, vanilla extract, applesauce, OR coconut oil in a bowl and mix together until you well combined.
  3. Stir together until it forms a dough. You should be able to pinch it together between your fingers.
