i have several types but i have that exact same pie pan and it is my go-to favorite...

i'll be making a pear pie this weekend.. with cranberries!

I wonder....did "someone" (hubby) place some c-4 in the crust in failed attempt at a coup?

 

[strollingbones]

i dont think so cause that means he will continue to make pie crusts

i took the crust outta the oven and put it on the oven top...it exploded....the stove top was dry and warm..there was no reason for the explosion other than the pan thought my crust sucked as much as i did

What happened to it? It looks like it was too small for the pie plate or something, like it didn't drape enough over the one side and so it kind of fell in.

i forgot to prick the bottom and sides...it puffed up and pulled away the sides....hubby is making another one...

Try making tarts instead. Or fruit desserts without crusts. Other than the occasional pie or something, I don't work with dough. It hates me, and I hate it. If I do a pie, I always buy a Pillsbury pie crust. They come in 2 rolls to a box for your top and bottom crusts. You just unroll them and put your slits in them, and they are good to go! Dough is a PITA!

I made an apple crisp that I'm bringing into work today. Really easy and no dough!

 

[strollingbones]

the pillsbury crust was the one i forgot to prick all over and it blew up....

I never prick the bottom crust. I just put a couple of slits in the top crust usually.

 

[strollingbones]

i am such an over achiever i even do great at failing

 

[strollingbones]

o when you have to pre bake a crust you have to prick the bottom.....

Been there! Why do you think I hate working with dough so much? Not to mention the clean up! It's so messy!

 

[ChrisL]

No matter HOW MUCH flour I use, it seems to get stuck to everything. The surface I am using, the rolling pin. I'm getting annoyed just thinking about it!

 

[strollingbones]

o the clean up .....lol you are so right and it takes a while chilling it and all

 

[strollingbones]

hubby freezes everything before he makes one.....cutting board....bowls etc rolling pin
