Notes: Vyvien and I have an on going disagreement about how to have baked bottom crust. I do not like unbaked pie crust. So, I have two different ways to help with that problem. 1: Put parchment paper on top of bottom crust, fill with dried beans or rice. Bake at 425º for 15 minutes. Remove parchment paper and beans or rice and continue baking as recipe states. 2: Brush bottom of crust with beaten egg. This helps keep the juice of the fruit from soaking into the crust. Vyvien just wants to bake as directed. We made this pie for Debra’s birthday. We tagged team. She made the crust and I made the filling. Vyvien made the top crust in a criss cross pattern. The pie was picture perfect. Go Vyvien!!
