Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Crust: Use a food processor to pulse the graham crackers and almonds together into crumbs. A few larger nut pieces is fine. Pour into a medium bowl; stir in sugar and melted butter until combined. Press tightly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie plate. Pre-bake crust for 8 minutes. Keep oven on.
Filling: Whisk or use an electric mixer to mix together sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice and egg yolks. Pour into warm crust.
Bake pie for 18-21 minutes or until only slightly jiggly in the center. It should be mostly set. Remove from the oven. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
Once cool, cover and chill for at least 1 hour (up to 3 days) before serving.
Serve with favorite garnishes.
