Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my pumpkin pie keeps cracking?

It's all about timing. Pulling your pie out of the oven within its optimum baking window — fully baked, but not overbaked — will prevent any cracks. The fully baked pumpkin pie will look slightly domed and solid around the edges and a bit sunken and soft in the center; not sloshing like liquid, but jiggling like Jell-O

How long does pie last in the fridge?

If you can, serve pies the day they were made instead of refrigerating them. But if you do need to store your pies ahead, apple and other fruit pies keep at room temperature for up to two days, then in the fridge for two more; pumpkin, custard, or other egg/dairy-based pies can be stored in the fridge for up to four days. Pie dough can keep for two to three days in the fridge, or up to three months in the freezer.

Does the type of pie pan I use affect my crust?

We prefer metal pie pans for their excellent heat conduction, but glass and ceramic pie pans work well too. Rest assured: No matter what kind of pan you have, you can still make great pie.

Can I make pie crust in a stand mixer?

Yes! This is one of our favorite methods for making pie crust: It ensures consistent results, can keep the pastry cooler, makes big batches a breeze, and is helpful for bakers dealing with hand pain, chronic fatigue, and other physical conditions that can make pastry difficult.

How do I prevent soggy bottoms in my pie?

There are several techniques you can use to prevent a soggy bottom in your pie. We recommend baking in a metal pie pan, prebaking your pie crust, and/or baking your pie on a pizza stone. You can also use a secret many bakers swear by: crust dust, a simple mixture of equal parts flour and sugar that you sprinkle on the bottom of the crust before you add the pie filling.
