Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F for pie crust. Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Cover the bottom & top of the pie crust with aluminum foil and bake 8 minutes to allow the crust to cook. Remove foil and bake another 4 minutes. Remove from oven. The crust should be light brown on the edges when removing from the oven.
