- Dot the filling with butter. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Roll out remaining paastry for top crust and decorate as desired. Be sure to cut vents in crust at a minimum. Fold pastry overhang under then bring up over pie plate rim. Pinch to form a high edge then make your choice of decorative edge.

I love to cook and discover new recipes. I really like to find healthy meals that are easy to prepare. Asian, Indian and Spanish foods are some of my favorites. Spices are good.
I have a background in restaurants but now I am a nurse. I mostly cook for just the two of us but we love leftovers and both take them for lunches at work.
