Tips:

  • When preparing the pie crust, use a food processor to quickly and easily combine the ingredients. This will also help to ensure that the crust is evenly mixed and flaky.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can also mix the crust ingredients by hand. Just be sure to mix them until they are well combined and the dough starts to come together.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a lightly floured surface to prevent it from sticking. You can also use a rolling pin with a guide ring to help you achieve a uniform thickness.
  • When assembling the pie, be sure to layer the ingredients evenly. This will help to ensure that each bite is packed with flavor.
  • Before baking the pie, brush the top crust with milk or an egg wash. This will help to give the crust a golden brown color.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to finish baking. This will help to prevent the crust from overbrowning.
  • Let the pie cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from running out.
