• Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the piecrust into a 13-inch circle. Transfer to a deep dish 9-inch pie plate. Tuck the edges under and crimp as desired.

Return to the oven for 3-5 minutes until the bottom of the crust is dry and the edges just start to turn light brow. Let cool slightly.
