  • Cover the bottom of the crust with parchment paper and add dried beans or pie weights on top, bake for approximately 18-20 minutes, remove the parchment paper and weights from the pie, if it is not completely baked then bake for an additional 5 – 10 minutes without the bean. Let cool completely before continuing with the recipe.
