Description

This beautifully woven lattice pie crust is easier to master than it looks. With a few simple tips, you can create a bakery-style pie top that works on any fruit pie.


Ingredients

  • Best Ever Pie Crust (double batch)

Instructions

  1. Roll out the chilled top crust on a lightly floured surface, turning as you go to prevent sticking. Aim for a 13-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick.
  2. Use a ruler and a pastry wheel, pizza cutter, or knife to cut even strips, about 1 inch wide. Chill the strips briefly if they become too soft.
  3. Lay half the strips evenly across the filled pie.
  4. Fold back every other strip, place a strip in the opposite direction, and unfold.
  5. Repeat the over-under pattern until the lattice is complete.
  6. Trim the overhang so the strips are just shy of the bottom crust’s edge.
  7. Tuck and press to seal, then crimp or finish the edge as desired.
  8. Chill the assembled pie for 15 to 30 minutes before baking.
