Take & Bake

Please note that all ovens vary slightly, and the times and temperatures given are guidelines only. Please watch your pie and adjust times and temperatures as needed.

All frozen/Take and Bake pie fillings are already fully cooked; you are only cooking the pastry and heating the filling.

Conventional Oven - Preheat oven to 400 °F
9 inch pie - bake for 60-75 minutes.

Convection Oven - Preheat oven to 350 °F
9 inch pie - bake for 40-55 minutes.


Notes:
Bake pies from frozen. Do NOT thaw.
Cover pie with foil and bake on a sheet pan for about 45 min. Be sure to place a baking sheet beneath the pie to catch any juices that may bubble over.

After approximately 45 minutes, remove foil and apply egg wash.**
Applying an egg wash, gives a nice golden and shiny pie crust. Egg-washing is optional.

Continue baking.

Be sure to rotate the pie 180 degrees about half way through to ensure even baking. Bake until crust is a dark golden brown and the filling is heated through. Let pie rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

**How to make an egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together a whole egg. Using a bristle or silicone pastry brush, lightly brush a thin layer of the egg wash on the surface of the pastry. Take care not to over apply the egg wash or let it pool on the surface of the pastry.
