Directions

  1. For The Pie Crust: Before making the pie crust, put mixing bowl, utensils and rolling pin (if made of marble) in freezer beforehand for best results.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  12. I usually place teaspoonful amounts scattered across the top of the pie filling as thats what it looked like in the picture.
  13. Place pie in large brown paper grocery sack.
  14. I usually fold the top edges down once and then use three paper clips to keep the fold in place and the heat in.
  15. Put entire bag on a cookie sheet.
