BACK AGAIN... Thanks so much. I went ahead and tried the foil around the edges right from the start before you lower the lid... I cut a square, used a 3" pastry ring and a pointy chopstick to score the circle for the center to be cut out. It baked absolutely perfectly. No need to remove it, cuz the crust browns with the foil!! (who'd have thought?) It just avoids the burning. I keep extra foil pieces to put over areas that are cooking too fast on top crust too. You were right DON'T PUSH DOWN~ great tip thanks!!! So far I've made chicken pot pies and tonight a pulled-beef stew pot pie I cut all the shredded beef with scissors so I can chew it ... I'm a granny and that's a challenge for me :D. It was leftover stew with a little wine in it. I added some extra carrots and peas into 1 cup of stew that was a little watery cuz I hadn't thickened it when I originally made it. I put a slurry of 2 TLB cornstarch mixed into 1/4 cup cold water. I gently stirred it in after it had cooked in the microwave for about 3 min. It only took another 1.5 min to cook and was ready for the pie. Ohhhh the smell of that wine sauce man that was tasty! I used 1/3 cup to fill the pie + 1/3 cup to top it when serving. It left 2 more baby food jars of 4 oz each for the next pie. I just froze them. This is stretching my budget and I am getting a lot of variety!! Gets me to eat my veggies too lol. PS I saw another suggest the foil to make a strip that sits below the pie as it cooks so you have a "sling" to lift the hot pie out. Man that worked great too! Oh and also I bought an 8" tortilla press and with the "Left over" dough from the pre-made dough, it makes another bottom I use it for quiches. :D

Yes at first cover the edges but not too long bcz we want to cook them too. I love putting g them in toaster oven to finish them but if you do that WATCH IT CLOSELY, bcz its already half way baked so we don't want to burn it we just want to finish baking it. I haven't tried the philo dough I will soon and when I can find it its hard to find cheap.

Just me, I have a little tip for you for your next little pies....Go ahead & use the same dough you've been using for the bottoms of your pies but , don't use it for the tops ...Instead get & use some PUFF PASTRY DOUGH just for the tops & you'll find the tops will start cooking perfectly to match the bottoms in the correct amount of time & also not having to burn any part of your pie to get it All done...Also , try using a 1/3 cup measuring cup for the right amount of filling for the pie maker, that way you won't need to cut vent holes in the top so the filling won't leak out the top & with puff pastry dough your tops will get thoroughly cooked done & without pie filling leaked all over the top of your pie...It'll be done & pretty too...👌👍👋💃❤💋

Yes, I was doomed to pie failures, and boxed it with the intent of kicking it to the curb.. then I did the pastry crust tip... made a decent pie! I used the crust for the top and bottom, but thanks for the extra tip of using pastry crust for the top, and using the regular pie crust for the bottom!.. Cheers!

Just my two cents... I don't like using puff pastry for pies like this, the texture turns out tough when it's cooked compressed so when you try to cut through it you just end up smashing your pie to death. Maybe there's another alternative?

@arthurwalls9091 Жыл бұрын

@@40KoopasWereHere Why did you compress the Puff Pastry Dough ??? The name Alone says I'm supposed to PUFF ...Her directions were to ROLL out the PIE DOUGH to try to make it thinner to try to get it to cook completely , nothing about Rolling Puff Pastry Dough , coz if you do you'll prolly make little crisps out of it 🤗....You can try this ...Use Pue dough for the bottom , Only put 1/3 cup filling in pie , put it in pie maker for about HALF or so the Prescribed time or until it just starts to Brown ...Remove the pie & put it in your Air Fryer for a few minutes , maybe 5 to 8 ( you be the judge ) just enuff time to finish Baking the Top thru & you should have success , I'm sure after a few pies practice you 'll have it down to a science......For another tip , with air fryers spraying with oil helps with browning , so maybe you could either spray or lightly brush the top with melted butter & sprinkle a little Cinnamon Sugar on top before you put it in the air dryer & maybe , just maybe it'll come out Perfect , Done & a little Brown with a nice sweet topping to it ....I'm sure you'll figure it out & make out just fine , Good Luck 🤗

@@arthurwalls9091 Well I didn't for this recipe, but I've used puff pastry in these sorts of pie/sandwich-making tools in the past and that is what causes it to "compress" - you're certainly not giving it free reign to rise up when it's got a lid clamped down over it and it's being cooked like that. Was an assumption for this idea since in the past that was the result when using puff pastry like that.

Roll your pie crust thinner then let bottom crust cook about 30 to 45 seconds. Before adding fruit and pile fruit so the top crust will touch the top of the pie maker.

@gillyb44 Ай бұрын

Do not vent the pies not needed. Fill up more so the top is domed , cook. the tops cook perfectly, the tops do not burn. I tend to use puff pastry. Preheat the pie maker too.

I put a square foil over the entire top of the pie. Take the foil off the last few minutes and the top will cook perfectly without any burned spots.

@nancyseiler2844 2 жыл бұрын

I’m suggesting that you don’t preheat the pie maker. That would allow the dough to start cook at the lower temp. Also, as done, the bottom crust is getting pressed in to a sizzling base, then the fill gets measured and added, all before the top even enters the picture. This gives the bottom longer to cook. I’d also bet that the top of the maker is just cooling all the while it is open. Don’t know, just wondering.

Why not use flour tortillas for the pies?

I just found out why. The tortilla comes out almost like a cracker, overcooked. Darn. I will from now on stick to pie crust dough. The al. foil over the top works good though.
