  • Make sure your oven is preheated before you start baking. This will help to ensure that your pie crust is cooked evenly.
  • Don't overmix your dough. Overmixing will make your crust tough.
  • Chill your dough before you roll it out. This will make it easier to work with and will help to prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Bake your pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. The filling should be firm but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  • Let your pie cool completely before serving. It will firm up as it cools and have the perfect texture.
