the crust on a rolling pin and lift it into<br />

the pan. Avoid stretching the dough<br />

to fit the pan, as it might shrink during<br />

cooking. Instead, use a ruler and measure<br />

the crust. A 13-inch diameter crust<br />

will fit perfectly in a 9-inch pie pan.<br />

Short Cuts<br />

If you’re still not ready to tackle a<br />

homema<strong>de</strong> crust, buy a refrigerated<br />

prepared crust and start from there.<br />

Simpler yet, you can buy a frozen pie<br />

crust in a disposable pie pan that is<br />

ready to fill. Your house will still smell<br />

<strong>de</strong>licious, and we promise not to tell<br />

anyone. Puff pastry and prepared pie<br />

filling are also an easy way to make a<br />

no-fuss home-baked pie.<br />
