Roll out the pie dough between two pieces of parchment paper.

Flip the rolled dough onto the pie pan, being careful not to break it.

Press the dough against the bottom and sides of the pie pan, ensuring no air pockets remain.

Trim the edges of the dough.

Refrigerate the pie crust to cool before adding the filling.

Use a piping bag or spoon to fill any cracks in the baked pie.

If there are cracks, turn the oven on broil for the last bit of baking.

After filling the cracks, return the pie to the oven for 30 seconds to a minute to finish the top.

Sprinkle icing sugar on top before serving.
