Hi Rachel! I have not had any issues. I actually have a note in step 4 about this. You don’t want to leave it in the freezer too long. 🙂

I’m using a Pyrex dish, but unfortunately it’s not one of the older borosilicate glass pie dishes, it’s the newer one made with soda lime glass which isn’t as resistant to thermal shock. Have you ever had a pie dish shatter when it went from the freezer to the oven?

Hi Mickey! If you want a crisp crust it won’t be a bad idea to fully bake it until golden, but you may end up needing to tent the sides to keep it from burning, but it’s the best way to guarantee it won’t get soggy. If you have a specific recipe you are following I would use their instructions. 🙂

I think this pie will benefit from par baking. Should I follow these instructions until the weights get removed (i.e. first 15 minutes of baking) and then fill the pie and apply the lattice? Or does par baking a crust need more time than that to prevent a soggy bottom?

P.S. All the recipes I’ve used from your site have been terrific. You are always my first stop when looking for something to bake! My son-in-law and grandson love your blueberry muffins so much, they keep me supplied with blueberries and sour cream so I will keep making them for them.

Hi Pete! I’ve heard of other people doing this with success, but I’d make sure you’re using a metal pie tin and note that it could take longer to bake. Let me know how it works!
